Incredible views from this mosque/fort; a few floors (steep, uneven, stone steps) offer a maze of small rooms, hallways with small windows, a couple of nice marble floor designs. No formal tours.

No guidance. Well kept fortress. Tickets only by credit card. Nice place to take photos. Best time to visit at sunset. Surrounding area is mainly a parking lot.
