Bidar Fort is situated in Bidar, Karnataka, India.
This Fort was built by the Bahamani Sultan Ahmad in 1426-32 CE, with a 5.5 KM long immensely thick wall and several unusual defence features.
The fort has a unique triple moat, believed to have been built by Turkish mercenaries. The fort abounds in tunnels and underground chambers that allow quick escapes in emergencies. It was also protected by 37 bastions, several enormous cannons stationed on towers around the fort and large magazines for arms storage. Other defensive elements include seven well protected gateways. In the zigzag passage between these gateways three thousand men could take up positions for defending the fort. Another gate, the indigenously designed Mandu Darwaza, has its entrance through a well defended underground tunnel.
The fort has ample provisions for water with several wells and pipelines in its distribution network. It is considered as one of the most formidable forts in the country. Bidar's military architecture has strongly influenced the planning and design of several other medieval cities like Golkonda, Bijapur, Hyderabad and Bangalore.
The Palace complex of the fort is accessed through two main gates on the south eastern side i.e the Sharza Darwaza and Gumbad Darwaza. Both massive structures are beautifully decorated with huge domes,arches and paintings. Several monuments within the fort, such as the Takht Mahal, Tarkash Mahal, Rangeen Mahal, Gagan Mahal, Shahi Matbakh (royal kitchen), Diwan-e-aam (public audinece hall), Solah Khamba Mosque and the Naubat Khana are noteworthy for their diverse architectural styles.
