Forts of India S01 E06 Bidar, Karnataka

Bidar Fort stands tall in the city of Bidar in Karnataka. The fort, the city and the district are all affixed with the name Bidar. Sultan Alla-Ud Din Bahman of the Bahmanid Dynasty shifted his capital from Gulbarga to Bidar in 1427 and built his fort along with a number of Islamic monuments. People come to visit this place to witness a glimpse of the mighty South Indian dynasties that ruled over Deccan. Now a deserted place, it still boasts of its intimidating bastions, fortifications, moating and the colourful royal palaces and museums which the visitors can witness to have a taste of the past.
