Rohtas Fort-2

I ran down the centuries old stairs to shoot Emraan from the front too. Here he is seeing sitting with legs hanging out (Not recommended position, Kids avoid this). Shaukat Niazi can be seen to the left of the frame. By the way, this gate is called the Talaqi gate. The work started on this gate in 1541

From Wikipedia;

Rohtas Fort (Urdu: قلعہ روہتاس Qila Rohtas) is a garrison fort built by the great Afghan king Sher Shah Suri. This fort is about 4 km in circumference and the first example of the successful amalgamation of Pashtun and Hindu architecture in the Indian Subcontinent.
