Bakhar Fort
SindhFortProtected
It is a small irregular shaped island between the towns of Sukkar and Rohri. The entire land falls within the Fort as the fortification wall runs on the outer periphery of the island touching the Indus water around. The whole area is littered with brick-bats, potshards and heaps of earth. A number of bastions or semi-circular and elliptical shaped structures are still standing at many places.
