The Red Fort

Lal Qila or Red Fort, also known as Delhi Fort, was constructed by the Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan when he decided to shift his capital from Agra to Delhi. Construction on the Red Fort began in 1638 and was complete by 1648. It became a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2007.

The Red Fort gets its name from the massive wall of red sandstone that defines its four sides. The wall is 1.5 miles (2.5 km) long, and varies in height from 60ft (16m) on the river side to 110 ft (33 m) towards the city. At one point in time, more than 3,000 people lived within the premises of the Delhi Fort complex.

Red Fort showcases the very high level of art form and ornamental work. The art work in the Fort is a synthesis of Persian, European and Indian art which resulted in the development of unique Shahjahani style which is very rich in form, expression and colour.

The Red Fort, the largest monument in Old Delhi, is one of the most popular tourist destinations in Old Delhi, attracting thousands of visitors every year. The fort is also the site from which the Prime Minister of India addresses the nation on August 15, the Independence Day of India.

Medical Tourism is the act of traveling abroad to receive medical, dental and cosmetic care. Medical Tourism is also called as Medical Travel, Health Tourism, Health Travel and Medical Value Travel. Significantly lower costs for best practice care is usually the primary motivation although some medical tourists go abroad for immediate availability of procedures and unavailable treatments. Patients frequently take advantage of the opportunity to vacation and tour inexpensively in the country they are visiting.
