Скачать или смотреть Siri Fort Episode 2: Architecture, Mongol Attacks & Lost Delhi History | with Asif Khan Dehlvi

Explore the architectural brilliance and turbulent history hidden within the ancient ruins of Siri Fort, Delhi’s often-overlooked medieval marvel.
In Episode 2, we take a closer look at the fort’s surviving walls, its massive bastions, and the unique rubble masonry that gives Siri its distinctive texture. You’ll see how the outer layers were crafted with shaped, tile-like stones while the core was built using thick rubble-filled construction—techniques that helped the fort withstand some of the fiercest attacks of its time.
We also revisit the era of Alauddin Khalji, the ruler who built Siri and successfully defended Delhi from repeated Mongol invasions. Learn how the Mongols ravaged cities across Asia—including the tragic destruction of Baghdad’s great library—and how Siri Fort became a strategic response to their threat.
The episode further explores how Delhi plunged into decline after Taimur’s invasion, and how later sultanates and empires reused the stones of Siri Fort to build new capitals like Tughlaqabad, Firozabad, and Shahjahanabad.
If you enjoy history, architecture, and hidden heritage, this video will take you on a fascinating journey through time.
