    If you’re already in Pathankot, catching the 15 minute local bus from the railway station is the quickest way to the fort’s bus stand. The route stops right at the fort, so you only have to walk a few minutes. On the way you’ll pass the Shahpur Kandi Barrage a good spot for a quick river shot, especially in the early morning when the light is soft. If you’re staying at Best Western La Vista Pathankot, the bus stop is only about three kilometres away, so you can hop on the bus right after checking in. A phone camera will capture the fort’s stonework fine, but a small tripod helps steady shots of the barrage.
