In the twelfth century Bhillama, king of the Yadav Dynasty built an invincible fort at Daulatabad. Situated on a pyramid-shaped hill, the fort with its slippery gravel pathways, spiked gates, spiral staircases and dungeons is a sight to behold. The sultan of Delhi Mohammed Bin Tughlaq was so impressed by the fort that he decided to shift his capital from Delhi to Daulatabad.
