This was the original capital of the moghuls and Akbar's first capital. It was built in the 16c of the local red sandstone and glows rose when the sun touches it. Half way through his reign Akbar moved his capital to Agra for political reasons and since then it has stood increasinglt abandoned until taken over by the Indian Monuments Comminission at the end of the 19C. It is a quiet place, very beautiful, quite romantic, magical.
