Lal Qila

Not saying that other cities in India have better metro stations, but any other city in India would have humble and helpful people when you are lost in the station. Firstly, I don't understand the stupid concept of the Airport express line. If someone is going to any other station that falls in the airport express line, the metro people end up giving you a different line ticket, where you need to change 100 other stations rather than giving you the airport line one. We lost 120rs per head because of the stupidity of these people. While we were lost, there was also a senior Australian citizen who encountered the same issue as us. He politely asked for help from a young metro employee, the employee was so annoyed that he literally shouted at him. Sorry to say, but no longer Delhi is Dil walo ka shahar that everyone talks so proudly about. Everyone here is always annoyed for some reason we don't know and behave as if the world revolves around them. Atleast, we as Indians coming from other states are still okay with this behaviour, but when someone visits from a different country, if this is the experience we give to them, not really sure what kind of a collective impression we are portraying. This was my first and definitely the last visit to Delhi!

Last week during my visit to this place the expectation was that the place would offer insight into the medieval history and the great mughals who ruled from this great place.
And that's a very normal expectation when one visits a historical monument.

Now the details of the visit -
The ASI plaque describes the location and the surroundings.
The ASI plaque mention the name of the building
The ASI ticket window counter provides the ticket for the museum inside the fort.

Negatives
The ASI plaque does not describe the use of the location.
The ASI plaque does not give any information on who used the place and how.
The ASI does not give any information on the registered guides and the charges for hiring a guide.
There is no information on the mughals and how, when on the construction of the fort.
The mughal information is completely obliterated from the fort.

But the entire information on independence struggle is provided by the ASI, and this information has no linkage to the history of the fort.
The 1st war of independence or the mutiny of 1857 is related to this place but freedom struggle details can be provided at some other place which is connected to the struggle.

It was a very disappointing visit. ASI has failed completely to do justice with the history of the place but succeeded in pacifying the present day politics.

It's a great experience to visit an historic place, I recommend everyone to visit at least once to get such a great experience of their life, I'm fully enjoy with my family here

गेट नंबर 1 मधून प्रवेश सुरू केला असून तिकीट आणि पार्किंग सुद्धा त्याच ठिकाणी आहे. जवळचे मेट्रो स्टेशन जामा मस्जिद आहे

This is a very beautiful place where I had a lot of fun going and I saw people from different countries here, I also talked to these people.

Red Sand Stone building spreaded in large area is a huge attraction of millions of tourists around the world.

It is historical palace but due festival season these days it is very crowdy palace and entry is not allowed.

Awesome and superb fort with Mughal architecture and a heritage by Mughal emperor Shahjahan. Nearby metro lala qila voilet line

Great Place to visit Lal qila.
Jama masjid, Chandni chowk Sunday bazar and many more stuff to visit in a single place.

The Red Fort is a historical fortification in the old Delhi area.
Shah Jahan constructed it in the year 1639 as a result of a capital shift from Agra to Delhi.
Used as the main residence of the emperors of the Mughal dynasty, this imposing piece of architecture derives its name from its impregnable red sandstone walls.
In addition to accommodating the emperors and their households, it was the ceremonial and political centre of the Mughal state and the setting for events critically impacting the region.
Today, this monument is home to several museums that have an assortment of precious artefacts on display.
Every year, the Indian Prime Minister unfurls the national flag here on the Independence Day.

Formerly known as Quila-e-Mubarak or the Blessed Fort, the Red Fort lies along the banks of the river Yamuna, whose waters fed the moats surrounding the fort.
It was a part of the medieval city of Shahjahanabad, popularly known today as 'Old Delhi'.
The entire fort complex is said to represent the architectural creativity and of Mughal architecture.
With so much history and heritage associated with it, the Red Fort is one of the most popular monuments in India and a major tourist attraction in Delhi.
It became a UNESCO world heritage site in 2007.
The Archaeological Survey of India is at present responsible for the security and preservation of this magnificent monument.

Nice metro station.
When anyone wants to visit the world famous Lal Quila and also came through the lal quila metro station.
Well maintained.
And very clean metro station. It is on the violet line.
It is nearly to kashmiri gate metro station.
And lal quila metro station is under ground station.

This place is carrying two beauties. First in day when this looks awesome. And second the most mesmerizing when when light is focused on it. Fantabulous

Its the historic fort in delhi, prime minister of india hoists indian flag every year on Independence day (15 August). Its really a good tourist attraction.easily accessible by cab, metro rail, bus etc, Gurudwara sis ganj sahib is near to red fort and chandni chownk is also near to it. Families can come and enjoy there afternoon here, nearest metro station is "lal quila".

Good. It is very large from inside. The ticket counter has a very large crowd every day, as all people visiting Delhi, come here in the first place. You can but tickets online from BookMyShow to skip the crowd. Don't forget to buy a museum ticket alongside it. The museum here depicts all historical events as demonstrative graphics.

Historical place.and it's very big. Covers a lot of area and has a museum & a market inside. It is famous for it history and has a lot of interesting stories about it. People interested in Architecture and history will find it terrific and for others it's just another monument.

This was first time to be there and the date is 26 jan 2020.entry for lal qila was not allowed at that time. So didn't visited

Great place & capital of mughal empre. Now it's a great historical place of india. & Museum are good to know independent wor of india

The Lal Qila is just in front of the station, just get up from the station and look to your left.if you happen to cross the street, then do that on your own risk, as there are no signalling system.

LalQuila is known as a Red Fort Built by Mugal Emperor Shahanjhan. This is a Historical place.
If you are planning to visit come with sufficent. Bring Debit card to purchase tickets to avoid long Que. There are two types of tickets one is without Museum.
Always hire Guide if you wants to know the building history or Architecture design and uses.
Come with water bottle and eatable. Inside as such there is no best provision for canteen.
Avoid peak summer. And specially follow wr sign board and rules.inside

Station is very good and can handle huge crowds but I cant understand why they close the gate number 3 early than the other gates and I had to exit from the gate to get my bus on gate 3.

लाल किले की सैर के बिना अधूरा है दिल्ली दर्शन

वैसे तो दिल्ली में घूमने के लिए कई सारी जगहें हैं, लेकिन लाल किला बात ही कुछ और है। हर साल स्वतंत्रता दिवस के मौके पर भारतीय प्रधानमंत्री लाल किले पर झंडा फहराते हैं और देश को संबोधित करते हैं। अगर आप पहली बार दिल्ली आ रहे हैं या फिर दिल्ली में रहने के बावजूद लाल किला नहीं गए हैं,
वैसे तो दिल्ली में घूमने के लिए कई सारी जगहें हैं, लेकिन लाल किला बात ही कुछ और है। हर साल स्वतंत्रता दिवस के मौके पर भारत के प्रधानमंत्री लाल किले पर झंडा फहराते हैं और देश को संबोधित करते हैं। इस बार यानी 72वें स्वतंत्रता दिवस के मौके पर लाल किले का नजारा अद्भुत था।ऐतिहासिक दृष्टि से महत्वपूर्ण लाल किले का निर्माण शाहजहां ने करवाया था। लाल रंग के बलूआ पत्थर से बने होने के कारण इसका नाम लाल किला पड़ा। इसके अंदर मौजूद दीवान-ए-आम, दीवान-ए-खास, रंग महल, खास महल, हमाम, नौबतखाना, हीरा महल और शाही बुर्ज यादगार इमारतें हैं।

Lal Qila is a station on the Violet Line of Delhi Metro system. [1]

One of the beautiful station in Delhi NCR that I found. It is one of busiest station.all over Delhi. It connects ous to red fort and make convient to go that place through metro from anywhere in Delhi. The station is very much clean and the people working as officials help a lot.

This metro station connects on violet line of metro. You can get to Lal Quila from its exit gate no 4. It's an underground metro station connecting kashmiri gate to other stations.

लाल किला मेट्रो स्टेशन यह लाल किले के सामने किस साइड पर स्थित अंडरग्राउंड स्टेशन है जो कि लाल किले को दिल्ली शहर से जोड़ता है वह दिल्ली के यातायात को काफी सुगम बनाता है वह यात्रियों की सुविधा को व्यवस्थित करता है

A beautiful, famous and archaeological monuments Red Ford which has concealed hundreds of stories about Mughal empire and freedom fighters during British rule. Really a beautiful and unique art visible in all walls and roofs all around the Fort with a beautiful fauwara established at Dewane Khash and king's Mahal. This is really a beautiful place for tourists, families and any one of us to must visit the place at once.

The railway station is underground, it is the same as compared to the other Metro Station clean and neat it is very near to the Lal Kila once you come out you can see the Lal Kila also transit options are available outside like auto and buses

A good metro just in front of Lal Qila. Center point for assembly for meeting a partner traveller. The birds hospital is adjacent and so is anicient Gauri Mandir. Gate No. 1 is just the gateway for Chandni chowk. The Metro Station is beautifully built full of art and paintings. Neat and clean.

Near to chandani chowk market. Commuters from this metro line easily can go chandni chowk, sadar bazar, khari bawali, nai sarak, old delhi railway station

Nice gate no 1 near to chandni chok and guru dwara and mandir all quila easy go for chor market as well and book bazar while shopping all things at cheap and best prices.

Though it is not that much good but for the first time visiter it is a good palace. There is a lot.of crowd during the pick hour so always prefer morning time or either on days. If you are with a group then it will be rememberable moment. It also provide a lot of historical fact about indian history.

Lal Qila metro station is very beautiful the Lal Qila electronics market is near this metro station you can buy all type of of solar panels batteries mobile accessories LED TV LCD TV hair at cheapest price in Delhi

Located at walking dstance of 1 min from lal quila.
If you are at a lal quila and want to go rajeev chowk and kasmiri gate. Opt. This metro instead of chadni chowk. You will saved from heavy rush.

Well built and maintained, you will like the drawings, paintings on wall here. If you want to buy Chinese lightings then please deboard here as it is very near by. Also can be used to walk to Chandni Chowk and Gurudwara

It makes easier to visit red fort because before this u have to exit from chandni chowk and then find red fort but it makes easier for those who is new in delhi.

Constructed in 1639 by the fifth Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan as the palace of his fortified capital Shahjahanabad, the Red Fort is named for its massive enclosing walls of red sandstone and is adjacent to the older Salimgarh Fort, built by Islam Shah Suri in 1546 AD. The imperial apartments consist of a row of pavilions, connected by a water channel known as the Stream of Paradise (Nahr-i-Bihisht). The fort complex is considered to represent the zenith of Mughal creativity under Shah Jahan, [citation needed] and although the palace was planned according to Islamic prototypes, each pavilion contains architectural elements typical of Mughal buildings that reflect a fusion of Timurid and Persian traditions. The Red Fort’s innovative architectural style, including its garden design, influenced later buildings and gardens in Delhi, Rajasthan, Punjab, Kashmir, Braj, Rohilkhand and elsewhere.
