Kashmiri Gate, Historic gate in North Delhi, India.
The Kashmiri Gate features two large stone arches designed for military defense, with distinct architectural elements from both Mughal and British periods.
Built in 1835 by Major Robert Smith, this gate sustained significant damage during the 1857 Indian Rebellion when British forces used gunpowder against Indian fighters.
The gate marks the intersection of Old and New Delhi, reflecting the architectural transitions and social changes that occurred throughout different ruling periods.
The location connects to three metro lines and the Interstate Bus Terminal, making it a central transportation hub for reaching multiple destinations.
The structure remains one of the few surviving gates of Shahjahanabad that maintains both its original passageways for entry and exit.
