			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Rumored to be imperishable, the great strong hold of Rohtas was built by Sher Shah Suri to crush the local Potohar and Gukkhar tribes and to prevent Emperor Hamayun from entering Shah&#8217;s domains. It has been built on the Grand Trunk Road at a distance of 16 km from Jehlum (a site chosen by Sher Shah himself), blocking the route from Quetta to Lahore. The fort is a beautiful blend of Indian and Pakhtun architecture. The elements of Hindu architecture include balconies and decorations while the utilitarian style of construction has been taken from Pakhtun architecture.</p>
</p>
<p>The fort has twelve gates including four trap gates which are in the direct line of fire of the bastions built at irregular intervals. It can accommodate a 30000 strong force. Wall on the circumference is 3.3 miles long and has variable height. The fortress doesn&#8217;t follow any symmetry. The cost of construction of Rohtas Fortress was about Rs. 3425000 as per Waqiat-e- Jahangiri. The names of its 12 gates are as follows: 1. Sohail Gate, 2. Kabuli Gate, 3. Shishi Gate, 4. Langar Khani Gate, 5. Talaqi Gate, 6. Khwas Khani Gate, 7. Gatali Gate, 8. Tulla Mori Gate, 9. Pipalwala Gate, 10. Sar Gate, 11. Shah Chandwali Gate, 12. Mori or Kashmiri Gate. There are 3 Baolis in the fort. These were made by cutting deep into the lime rock. Located near the Kabuli gate is an amazing mosque known as Shahi Masjid (Royal Mosque). The mosque has been decorated with beautiful round designs in which Islamic verses are written in Naqsh script. The stone carvings and calligraphic pieces of art are truly remarkable. If you visit the place, you will also find glazed tiles used for decorative purposes. Jehangir, one of the most powerful rulers of India, uttered the following words about this fort:</p>
</p>
<p><strong>&#8220;This fort was founded in a cleft and the strength of it cannot be imagined&#8221;</strong></p>
<p><strong><br /></strong></p>
<p>In recognition of the beauty and historical importance of this fort, it was titled as a World Heritage site by UNESCO in 1997. The famous Grand Trunk road can be used to visit the fort.</p>

<p>Bodrum Castle, located in southwest Turkey in the city of Bodrum, was built by the Knights Hospitaller starting in 1402 as the Castle of St. Peter or Petronium. Confronted with the invasion of <a href="http://www.dankuna.com/blog/tag/seljuk-turks" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with seljuk turks">Seljuk Turks</a>, the Knights Hospitaller, with their headquarters on the <a href="http://www.dankuna.com/blog/tag/island-of-rhodes" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with island of rhodes">island of Rhodes</a>, needed another stronghold on the mainland. Grand Master Philibert de Naillac (1396-1421) found a suitable site across the island of Kos, where there was already a castle of the Order. This location had been already the site of a fortification in Doric times (1110 BC) and of a small Seljuk castle in the 11th century. The same promontory was also the probable site of the palace of Mausolos, the famous king of Caria. Turkey is interesting country for <a href="http://www.dankuna.com/blog/tag/vacations" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with vacations">vacations</a> and trips.<br />
