The fort is one of the main attractions of Pathankot city. It was built in 1505 AD by a Rajput chief, by the name of Jaspal Singh Pathania. It was strategically located to have control over the Kangra and Nurpur region. The fort is in ruins, and is famous for its temples and the view it commands over the Ravi river.

Kathgarh Mandir

Flexible

An important ancient Shiva temple 30 km from Pathankot towards Indora/Chanour (HP). During "Naag panchami", the gap between two shiva parvati holy stones reduces and during "shivrathri" the gap increases. There is no clue as to how that happens. But truly it' has a magic of its own.
