Daulatabad Fort is one of India’s most formidable hill forts, built on a steep volcanic rock that made it nearly impossible to capture. Known for its brutal defense system, twisting dark passages, deadly traps, 200-foot moat and thick stone walls, the fort shows how advanced medieval military engineering truly was. Inside, you’ll find the iconic Chand Minar, ancient cannons, rock-cut steps and panoramic views from the summit.
