Belapur Fort

Fort: Belapur

This fort has only 1 of its bastions left and is located in Belapur (Navi Mumbai). This is located near the highway to Uran. This fort was supposed to be built by the Siddis of Janjira during 1560-1570. The British partially destroyed this fort. Nowadays only a bastion remains to be seen of the fort.
