Attock Fort, Military fort in Attock Khurd, Pakistan.
The fortress stands on elevated terrain between two rock formations, Kamalia and Jalalia, along the banks of the Indus River.
Emperor Akbar commissioned the construction of this strategic fortification in 1580 to protect the northern boundaries of the Mughal Empire.
The fort incorporates architectural elements from Mughal military engineering, featuring robust defensive walls, watchtowers, and internal corridors for soldiers.
The military complex remains under Pakistan Army control through the Special Services Group, limiting general public access to specific areas.
The fort contains a network of underground chambers and passageways connecting various watchtowers along its perimeter walls.
