It has two roads; one, by which we came, leads to it from the south-east, goes along the top of ravines and on either hand has hollows worn out by the torrents. A mile from Parhāla this road, in four or five places before it reaches the Gate, becomes a one-man road with a ravine falling from its either side; there for more than an arrow's flight men must ride in single file. The other road comes from the north-west; it gets up to Parhāla by the trough of a valley and it also is a one-man road. There is no other road on any side. Parhāla though without breast-work or battlement, has no assailable place, its sides shooting perpendicularly \[Sidenote: Fol. 230b.\] down for 7, 8, 10 yards. - [Previous: 925.5.4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.babur.baburnama~en-beveridge.925.5.4) - [Next: 925.5.6](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.babur.baburnama~en-beveridge.925.5.6) - [Up: 925.5](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.babur.baburnama~en-beveridge.925.5) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.babur.baburnama~en-beveridge.925.5.5](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.babur.baburnama~en-beveridge.925.5.5) · Pramāṇa
