The Bloody Bastion is a remnant of the once-mighty fortifications of Multan, earning its grim name from the intense fighting that occurred here during the British siege of 1848. It was one of the key defensive positions held by the local forces. Today, visitors can see the thick brick walls and gun embrasures, offering a tangible connection to the city's turbulent military history. The bastion stands in a quiet area, providing a stark contrast to the busy streets nearby.
