Ita Fort is one of the most important heritage spots in the capital area. The fort’s thick brick walls and irregular layout make it feel like a “hidden ruin” inside a modern city. When you walk around the site, you can still sense the scale of old defensive architecture—built to control movement and protect the settlement—while the surrounding greenery and open spaces make it a calm visit for history lovers and photographers.

History & highlights
Official district notes describe Ita Fort as a 14th–15th century brick fort, and even the name “Ita” links to “bricks” (Assamese usage), showing how strongly the structure is identified with its brick construction. Many references associate the fort with medieval rulers of the region and treat it as a key marker of early settlement history around present-day Itanagar.
