Chitral fort is built near the bank of Chitral river. One of the famous landmark in chitral. As i visited this fort i came to know that the royal family is still living there. This place needs to be highlighted and taking care of. Because the building inside was seen damaged. The view of the river is breath taking and i am amazed to see they chose the best possible place in chitral to built thiz fort.

It's a beautiful fort, but quite neglected. This structure can become the biggest tourist attraction of the city and area but unfortunately haven't been preserved well. I'd suggest handing it over to serena or Pc to turn it into a hotel, for at least they'll preserve it. My suggestion might seem lunatic but this structure deserves to be praised and preserved well. The front gate was closed, so i had to go from the back side, and thanks to Chacha Sher Ali, who allowed me to visit this place. While I was leaving, I was forced by my photographic urge to take a picture of chachu and Wallah he's so photogenic. To cut short, Chitral Fort should be restored to up to its full grandeur and royalty.

Chitral fort is an important landmark of this city. The fort is situated on the bank of the Kabul River. The fort is still in possession of the royal family of Chitral and head is called Mehtar or chief. The fort is unique in architecture and heritage. The current Mehtar Fateh-ul-Mulk Ali Nasir is a well versed and vigilant personality and used to write pieces on history.

The public can visit only on friday to sunday.
However on request some portions of the fort can be visited.

People are very friendly. And the place is a must to visit.

Chitral Fort is one of the best sightseeing places in Chitral. Standing atop Chitral River, it provides an aesthetic view of the valley. The guides are very courteous and provide quality information about the Fort. A must visit place if you are visiting Chitral.
