General View of Diwan-Am, Fort Agra.

[Original title] Built by the Emperor Aurangzeb in 1685 A.D. [end]

The Diwan-Am or Diwan-I-Am was a Hall of Public Audience. Built between 1631-40, the Mughal Emperor Shahjahan addressed his subjects here. The arches of the Diwan-I-Am are covered with white lime polished to give the entire structure a smooth finish and marble look.
