This is a Spectacular piece of Art which was build in the reign of Emperor Jahangir. It is located in Sheikhupura Pakistan. It was invaded by many kings and they took control of this fort, and this cycle of over throwing power continued for centuries. Many Maharaja's and maharani's were house arrested in this fort after demise of their power. It was a great architecture which should not be ruined like this we should take care of our Historical Buildings and Architecture.

It is the main Entrance gate of the fort and this is the only entrance to the fort.

Lets go inside and take a look at it, as you can see that it's like falling apart, the administration of this fort told me to watch out the buildings inside the fort, it's not in good condition.

There are many buildings in the fort but tourists are not allowed to go inside because of it's damaged condition and many buildings have bats in them living for a long time. Lets see the artistic buildings which now look like as abandoned houses.

This place once represented lavish life style of kings and Maharajas, but now its only a historical ruin due to the People who did not care about the value of the Historical culture. As you can see that a Place which was an Example of an Amazing Art building transformed into a haunted house.
