Fort Walls

Gumbad Gate

This innermost entrance gate has an imposing facade composed of a high, pointed arch. Above this is a crenellated parapet flanked by domed turrets. A large flattish dome rises behind this, an unusual feature for a fort entrance. The gravel path leading to it, flanked by battlements, traverses the inner moat.
