ID 299318882 © Salehsohrabicg | Megapixl.com
This fort was built on three levels and the entrance to it was from the lowest level through a spiral staircase that reached the main courtyard of the middle terrace. Three sides of the courtyard were surrounded by square rooms with a curved arch, and the fourth side led to the upper terrace on which the main palace building was located. The entire palace consisted of a large porch with a curved arch and two smaller porches on both sides. The large porch, which was 14 meters wide and 23 meters long, led to a central room whose roof was covered in a new way, i.e. dome. Additional rooms were located on the sides of this domed room and all of them were inside a circular outer wall.Currently, the access route to this work is through 980 steps, unlike the existing cable car.
