Pishukan,a village in Pakistan, holds within its boundaries a remarkable piece of history an Omani fort. Built by the Omani government before August 14th 1947, this rectangle fort was designed with the purpose of ensuring security in the area. The fort's unique circular shape and sturdy stone walls make it a striking sight that has stood the test of time for over a century. Despite the passage of time, the fort remains in remarkably good condition, a testament to the craftsmanship and ingenuity of its Omani builders. The winds of time may have weathered the stones, but the fort stands tall, preserving the whispers of history within its empty halls.

The fort has witnessed generations come and go in Pishukan, and while its days of shielding Omani rulers have passed, it continues to stoically stand guard over the village. Each stone carefully placed by the hands of its Omani builders tells a story of resilience and endurance, a testament to their skill and dedication to creating a structure that would withstand the tests of time.
