Hello Friends I will tell you about some old forts of Pakistan in this post. My bikers club Cross Route Int planned a tour to Azad Jammu & Kashmir on 5th Feb for Kashmir day. They decided to hit the road on 4th Feb at 2:00 PM. for MirpurAzad Jammu & Kashmir. I want to visit Three forts Rohtas Fort, Mangla Fort and Ramkot Fort in addition an old Hindu Temple. So i started my journey 9:00 AM from Lahore towards Rohtas Fort. 5 hours before them.
So I started my travel Towards Jehlum for Rohtas Fort at 8:00 AM on my Bike. I was alone on the way I stopped at Mian Jee Restaurant for my lunch. This restaurant is Most famous for their Tarka Daal with Desi Ghee they also served Achar which make the taste Double.
After very tasty lunch I also visited very old Hindu Temple On the way in Gujrat.
I have been late due to visit of temple Now I was back on My way I have to leave G.T road at Dina and turn left towards Rohtas Fort.
From here Rohtas Fort is about 9 km and it takes almost 20 minutes.
I reached at Rohtas Fort almost 3;00 P.M.I was surprised to see the huge Fort. At least one full day is required to visit full fort comprehensively But I was getting late for Mirpur so I visited all fort in two Hours.
This Fort was built by Sher Shah Suri in 1541 A.D in Record period of Seven years.He was the founder of Suri Dynasty and born in 1486 A.D. in Sasaram India.Rohtas Fort is one of the largest fort in South Asia. It is a majestic specimen of pure military architecture in whole subcontinent. Rohtas Fort was never stormed by force and has survived remarkably intact.
The fort is known for its large defensive walls, and several monumental gateways. Rohtas Fort was inscribed by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site in 1997 for being an "exceptional example of the Muslim military architecture of Central and South Asia.
It has 14 Huge Gates,all the gates are remarkably Huge and there are three interesting Buildings which are must visiting places one is Havaily Maan singh 2nd is Phansi Ghaat and 3rd is Sher shah suri mosque.It also have many water Baolies (Well) I uploaded the picture of Biggest Baoly. From the big walls you can see the magnificent view of all valley
@Muhammad_Usman This Fort is beautiful. Too bad you were on a rush or you could take your time. Do you think visiting the fort in the early morning is good? So, it’s not too hot.
@Ant_Bad_Yogi It was so big but I have to go more 150 km to my destination so I have to little hurry. weather is too cold in these days 10 to 20 degree in day time so weather is no problem
Great photos @Muhammad_Usman and this is a very interesting fort! History is usually my main reason for visiting new places and this looks really impressive.
Visiting all of the places by bike must have added some extra excitement too, I know it would have for me.
I’m looking forward to the next part of your journey, I hope it’s as good as this one.
I’m curious about which phone you were using to shoot these photos? They look great!
Thanks a lot @MortenSI Feeling happy to read your main reason for visiting new places. Yes visiting all of the places by bike must have added some extra excitement too and I feels a different type of liberty.I will try to tag you for the next part of my journey,. I am using real me 5s to shoot these photos.
I’ve always wanted to take a vacation and ride a bike around Vietnam or America @Muhammad_Usman , it must be such a great experience. Maybe I should start by learning how to drive a motorcycle.
I’m looking forward to your next post in this series!
Must think about this you never imagine freedom you feel on a bike because bike can go a lot of places where even a car cant go wish you good luck @MortenSI
That’s so true @Muhammad_Usman , and that’s the kind of feeling I’m hoping I get to experience some day. The fresh air, wind blowing and the choice to drive anywhere I want.
very nice post, I love your photos and your journey. The fort looks like very beautiful and I think it is nice experience those historical local places.
Shame you were too late, looking forward to see the others you missed in one of your next adventure.
Its big honor for me @LuigiZ you love my Photos and like my adventure I didn’t miss my any adventure but I did some hurry to saw the fort and I was fully succeeded although its worth seeing to it I loved to spend more time but nothing I missed
I have just released your post from the Spam Filters. I would like to apologise for your post being marked as spam. Our filters run 24/7 and they can be a little harsh at times.
More than welcome @Muhammad_Usman , I really like the place and the photos, and glad you didn’t miss anything also if you were running to the visit. Looking forward to the next part .
Thanks @MoniDi for releasing my post from spam yes I know that your filters run 24/7 and they can be a little harsh at some times. I have read the article Why was my Connect post marked as spam? but couldn’t find any reason to mark my post as a spam is it possible to know the specific reason to know why my post was marked as a spam
This happens from time to time, especially with longer posts full of text and photos. One of the reasons could be because you edited the post. Another could be because of a certain external link. My advice is to share a Google Maps link of the places you are writing about instead of other external links. This makes it easier for other Local Guides to find them on the map.
Don’t be discouraged to share nice posts, we check the spam quarantine daily and make sure to move out everything that is not supposed to be there.
I am not discouraged @MoniDi at all instead I love to post on connect although I did not get my answer and it shows no body knows the exact reason of mark to spam so should I next time post few pictures and less details?
Posting less text and photos is not the solution for keeping your posts out of the spam quarantine. Like I’ve mentioned before, try to preview your submission before hitting “post" as multiple edits afterwards can trigger a quarantine until a moderator manually releases the post.
Adding Google Maps links to the POIs is preferred to adding Wikipedia links. More often than not, external links lead to various websites which some Local Guides use for promotion and advertising and this is against the program rules.
To answer your question, no there is no exact reason why your posts was marked as spam but the above mentioned actions could have lead to that.
