Standing on a pyramid - shaped hill, is this impressive fortress, once known as 'Devgiri'. Built in the 12th century by Bhillama, the king of the Yadav dynasty, it was named _______ the city of fortune, by Mohammed Bin Tughlaq, Sultan of Delhi. The Sultan was so taken with this fortress, that he decided to shift his capital here. A 5 km massive wall, artificial scarping, spiked gates, dungeons and a variety of complicated defence systems rendered this fort impregnable. The 30 metre high Chand Minar, built by the Bahmani rulers is another famous landmark of the area.


Can you guess the name of this fort ?
