INFORMATION

I WENT TO MULTAN FORT BY MY CAR. THERE I SAW AN EXHIBITION HALL. THERE WERE PICTURES AND INFORMTION WRITTEN. THERE WERE VERY THICK BOUNDARY WALLS FOR THE SECURITY, MADE UP OF VERY HARD BRICKS. THERE WERE SO MANY PEOPLE PAYING THE VISIT. NEAR THE PARKING AREA, THERE WERE SO MANY PIGEONS. THE WLLS OF THE FORT WERE VERY HIGH TO MAKE THE ENTRNCE IMPOSSIBLE THROUGH THEM. ACTUALLY THE WALLS WERE FOR THE SAFETY OF KING WHO LIVED THERE. THEY LIVED IN IT YEARS BACK.

THE WALLS PROTECTED THE KING AND HIS FAMILY FROM THE ARMIES WHO ATTACKED THEM. THERE IS A SECRET PESSAGE FROM WHERE THE KINGS AND THE PEOPLE IN THE FORT COULD ESCAPE. THEY COULD GO TO THE SAFER PLACE UNTIL THE TIME WHEN THE WALL OF THE FORT WAS BROKEN. THE HIGH WALL ALSO SUPPORTED THE PEOPLE WHO WERE USING THE WAPONS ON THE OPPONENT ARMY. THERE ARE VERY OLD HOUSES AROUNF THE FORT FOR THE PEOPLE WHO WORKED IN THE FORT TO SERVE THE KING .

I SAW THAT THERE WAS A VEY GIGANTIC WATER TANK FROM WHICH THE WATER CAME TO THE FORT AND ALL THE HOUSES WHICH WERE IN THE LOCATION. I ALSO SAW A FACTORY WHICH WAS IN THE VACINITY. IN THAT FACTORY THE PAPERS AND SOME THINGS WERE BEING RECYCLED. THE ENTRANCE GATE OF THE FORT IS HUGE. THERE IS A MOSQUE IN THE CENTRE OF THE ROAD AND ON THE SIDE OF THE FORT. IN THE EXHIBITION HALL THERE WERE SOME MODELS OF THE CAMELS WHICH THE KINGS USED, PAINTINGS, INFORMATION ABOUT THE FORT, THE FIRST CAMERA WHICH WAS MADE IN PAKISTAN AND SOME WHEELS WHICH WERE USED ON THE CARTS IN THE OLD TIME. I ALSO SAW A PARK WHERE THERE WERE SWINGS. THIS FORT WAS MADE ON A HILL. THERE WERE FOUR GATES. THE WALL OF THE FORT WAS OF 40 TO 70 FEET. THIS WAS BUILT BY KATOCH DYNASTY. THIS WAS DESTROYED BY BRITISH FORCES DURING THE OCCUPATION OF INDIA.
