Gurkha Fort, Kasauli

Gurkha Fort rests at an altitude of 1437 m above sea level in the town of Subathu, which is popular as the cantonment town. Built by the Gurkhas in the 19th century, the fort holds 180-year old cannons that were used in battles. The region came under the British rule after the Gurkhas were defeated in a war. Subathu is now a major army cantonment region having 14 Gurkha Indian army training centres.
