Ramkot Fort (Template:Lang-ur) is an ancient fort situated in Azad Jammu and Kashmir, Pakistan currently beside the Mangla Dam. It was built in 1186, it is accessible through boat, 13 kilometers away from Dina and 79 kilometers by road from Mirpur, Azad Kashmir to Dadyal town. It is also accessible from [Gujar Khan], via Jabbar and Notla then using boat. The fort is accessible from Siakh village from Dadyal side and Mangla through boats which take approximately 20 to 30 minutes. Three sides of the hilltop are surrounded by the Jhelum River, which falls into the huge reservoir of Mangla Dam. It was built by the Gakhar Sultan named Toglu as recorded by traveler and geologist Frederick Drew in his book.^[1]
