EDITORS COMMENTS
Ali Masjid Fort, Khyber Pass, circa 1905: A Glimpse into the Colonial Past Nestled at the narrowest point of the Khyber Pass, near Peshawar, India (now in Pakistan), stands the majestic Ali Masjid Fort. This photograph, taken around 1905, captures the fort's grandeur and the breathtaking dry landscape that surrounds it. During the British colonial era, the Khyber Pass served as a crucial gateway to India from the northwest frontier. The fort, also known as Ali Masjid or the 'Mosque of Ali,' was a significant military outpost and a symbol of British power and control in the region. The fort, perched atop a hill, exudes an aura of strength and resilience. Its imposing walls and towering turrets stand proudly against the clear blue sky, while the barren hills in the background add to the fort's striking silhouette. The British Indian Army played a significant role in the construction and maintenance of the fort, which was essential for the defense of the Indian subcontinent against potential invasions from the northwest. The fort's strategic location made it a vital point of control, allowing the British to monitor and regulate the movement of people and goods through the Khyber Pass. The photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when the British Empire ruled over India, and the Khyber Pass was a vital artery of trade and military movement. Today, the Ali Masjid Fort stands as a testament to the rich history and cultural diversity of the region, attracting tourists and history enthusiasts from around the world.
