Asfan Fortress


 Another Ottoman fortress located on top of a hill in a privileged location near the many roads that pass through Isfan.
 The castle was mainly to protect the caravan routes nearby. The castle is built in the form of a square with four towers on the corners and two additional towers on each of the four walls.
 Some of the walls and towers are still in relatively good condition, but it appears that part of the hill on which the castle stands has been removed by construction work on the adjacent road, as the castle is now on the edge of the hill. 
The experience of going up to the castle via the road network is not as valuable as it enjoyed in the Ottoman era.
