The architecture of Gobindgarh Fort reflects a blend of Rajput and Mughal styles, characterized by robust defensive structures and intricate ornamentation. The fort, surrounded by high walls and bastions, served as a strategic military outpost during the reign of Maharaja Ranjit Singh. For more, visit the link below:
