Rohtas Fort (Punjabi, Urdu: قلعہ روہتاس; Qila Rohtas) is a 16th-century fortress located near the city of Jehlum in the Pakistani province of Punjab. The fort is one of the largest and most formidable in the subcontinent.[ Rohtas Fort was never stormed by force, and has survived remarkably intact.
The fortress was built by Raja Todar Mal on the orders of Sher Shah Suri, partly to suppress the local Gakhar tribes of then Potohar region. Some Gakhar tribes were allies of the Mughal Empire, and refused to recognize the suzerainty of Sher Shah Suri.
The fort is known for its large defensive walls, and several monumental gateways. Rohtas Fort was inscribed by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site in 1997 for being an "exceptional example of the Muslim military architecture of Central and South Asia.

Rohtas Fort Baoli
Baolis are deep level step wells constructed by building a staircase into the earth. There are two major baolis at Rohtas Fort, one near the Kabuli Gate and another near the Tulla Mori Gate. The Kabuli Gate Baoli contains 60 steps leading down to the water with small side chambers which may have been intended as bathing chambers for the royal family or high-ranking members of fort's command. The deeper baoli, shown here, has 148 steps and leads into a considerable distance into the earth.
