Delhi Darwaza was the main gate of Mandu. Emperor Akbar entered Mandu through this gate. There is also one Elephant Gate or Haathi Darwaza which is in dilapidated condition but these gates tell us the story of the glorious past of Mandu. Another great gate is the Alamgir Darwaza which is named after Mughal king Aurangzeb who was also named by the name-Alamgir. These ancient gates were made for the purpose of protection.
