Tughlaqabad Fort is a historic fortress located in South Delhi, built in the 14th century by Sultan
Ghiyas-ud-din Tughlaq. The fort is known for its massive stone walls, rugged layout, and
commanding position that once served as a strong defense structure.
Although now in ruins, Tughlaqabad Fort offers a striking glimpse into Delhi’s medieval past. Its vast
open spaces, steep walls, and isolated atmosphere make it a fascinating destination for history
