The Agra Fort (Qila Agra) is a historical fort in the city of Agra, and also known as Agra's Red Fort.
Mughal emperor Humayun was crowned at this fort. It was later renovated by the Mughal emperor Akbar from 1565 and the present-day structure was completed in 1573.
It served as the main residence of the rulers of the Mughal dynasty until 1638, when the capital was shifted from Agra to Delhi. It was also known as the "Lal-Qila" or "Qila-i-Akbari". Before being captured by the British, the last Indian rulers to have occupied it were the Marathas.
In 1983, the Agra fort was inscribed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site because of its importance during the Mughal Dynasty. It is about 2.5 kilometers (1.6 mi) northwest of its more famous sister monument, the Taj Mahal.
The fort can be more accurately described as a walled city. It was later renovated by Shah Jahan.

The Trans-Siberian Railway is the world’s longest single continuous rail line, spanning about 9,289 kilometers from Moscow to Vladivostok across eight time zones, vast taiga forests, steppe, mountains, and 16 major rivers.
Construction began in 1891 under Tsar Alexander III, with Tsarevich Nicholas II laying the first stone in Vladivostok. The project aimed to unite the Russian Empire, boost trade with Asia, and develop Siberia’s resources.

It later supported Soviet industrialization, World War II logistics, and remains a key passenger and freight corridor operated by Russian Railways.
The premier service is the Rossiya train number 001/002, a comfortable firmeny train with renovated carriages featuring air conditioning, power outlets, USB ports, and showers in some cars. It offers first-class (two-berth), second-class kupe (four-berth), ...
