Surat Castle<\/p>\n <\/li>\n
This ancient monument was built in 1546 by Sultan Muhmad III, the King of Ahmedabad, for protection against repeated Portuguese raids. He entrusted the task to Safi Aghast, a Turkish soldier. The castle has 12-m high battlements and 4-m thick walls; iron strips were used to bind its various elements and all its joints were filled with molten lead to make it impenetrable. <\/p>\n <\/li>\n
