A Mughal Marvel | Constructed by Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan, the Red Fort houses the lesser-known albeit amazing Hayat Bakhsh Bagh. The garden is similar to other Mughal gardens and the design of Hayat Bakhsh Bagh comprises dome-less towers and channels to diffuse water that make it a picturesque monument.
