A strategic site, Sher Shah Suri built a strong fortified complex at Rohtas in 1542. It is located at about 11 miles North-West of Jhelum and 4 miles south of Dina Railway Station. The main fortifications consist of the massive walls, which extend for more than 4 km; they are lined with bastions and pierced by monumental gateways. Rohtas Fort is an incomparable example of early muslim defense mechanism. This irregular plan of the fort is probably the biggest in the Indo-Pak subcontinent. The fort has been divided into two main zones; the north-west quadrant, separated from the rest fort by an inner wall. It is called Andarkot and was perhaps reserved for the accommodation of the higher ups. ‘Andarkot’ has three of the four intact structures of fort; the so called Raja Man Singh Heveli, the Shahi Masjid and one of the two Baolis inside the fort. Rohtas fort contains 68 semicircular bastions and 12 gateways.
