A sunset and the Dead Fort (large photos)

Awais Yaqub · January 19, 2010

Rohtas fort was built by Mughal Emperor Shar Shah Suri, it was built to serve as defensive fort to house troops of Mughals. Today it is almost dead and there is a small colony of people living inside the fort. I was not happy to see condition of fort, and on top of everything Photography was banned there, then we had to assure them that we were just tourists and they allowed us to take photos.
