Historical place with very incredible view over Aden city, needs more attention though. The fortress walls are completely covered with stupid writings from ignorant people which lower the historical value of the fortress, yet with more attention the place would be incredible .Definitely recommend visiting.

One of the best memories in my life is when I went to the top of the fortress. It has a fascinating view of most of the city. The prices to go to the top is inexpensive.

واحدة من المعالم السياحية لمدينة عدن ... تحكي إصرار وشجاعة الناس في ذلك الزمان في الدفاع عن أرضهم ضد المعتدين.طريق الصعود إلى القلعة منحدر قليلاً .. لذا يحبذ أن تلبس حذاء رياضي عند زيارتك .. ومدة الصعودة تتراوح من 7 إلى 10 دقائق حسب اللياقة .. ورسوم الدخول تكلف 100 ريال يمني فقط للفرد.وكما هو حال معظم المعالم التاريخية .. يشكو هذا الصرح الإهمال الشديد فترى الكتابات على الجدران والقمامة منتشرة .. وبعض الجدران المكسورة .وكنصيحة .. قم بجلب مياه معدنية باردة عند زيارتك لأنه لا يوجد بائعون متجولون في الأعلى .. ومن ثم إذا كنت تنوي زيارتها مع عائلتك .. فيستحسن زيارتها عند الغروب .. عندما تكون أشعة الشمس غير قوية.Its one of the touristic landmarks in Aden, it defines the insistence and bravery of the people at that time. This Castle has served as an impregnable Wall against the invaders.The way towards the castle is about 7 minutes walk as a Maximum for a young person, its a little bit steep so its better to wear a boot; but its OK if you wearing a high heels shoes. You will have to pay ( 100 YER = 0.46 $ / person as an entrance fee.When you walk up, you can enjoy the view of the Indian Ocean along the horizon and in the other side you can see the whole city of Crater district, its a magnificent view and marvelous. But as usual; there is no care from the Government for such Historic locations, so you will find borders of the castle have fallen. You will find some old Canon with its head down, and there is so many writing on the walls.If you plan to sit up there for a while, make sure to bring cold water with you because there is no shops or street seller in this place, and as an additional energizer and rest, you can get some juice and biscuits to enjoy your stay.If you have a family try to come at the sunset time or before, because at this time the sun become softer and the weather gets cooler.

Excellent trip though a shame to see the fortress itself so vandalised. Major attraction is being able to see almost all of the crater from the roof - particularly spectacular at night
