Dominating the skyline of Gyantse, the fortress is run down but offers great views of the town, the famous Gyantse Kumbum and the surrouding valleys.
I walked around the hill and then up to the top - and everywhere, I had amazing views of the surrouding area. With clouds floating in the sky, sunlight was working like a random spotlight, highlighting the Gyantse Kumbum, the surrounding mountains, the water in the fields below, the town itself. The view of the monastery below was especially good, and I could easily plan walking the kora around it by looking at the route from above. One of the reasons I wanted to visit the fortress was the Anti-British Imperialists Museum, but unfortunately, that had been closed, or was in the process of being renovated. I could only see the an old board with some introductory texts in a storage room.
