Peshawar, capital of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa
Street near the Bala Hissar (Bala Hisar), a historic fortress in Peshawar. It was used as a royal residence for the Durrani Empire since December 1747, when Ahmad Shah Durrani conquered Peshawar. The Sikhs reconstructed the fort after capturing Peshawar in March 1823. In 1849, the British East India Company reconstructed the fort's outer walls.
