Peshawar is one of the oldest cities of the Subcontinent. Like other components associated with old cities, boundary wall round the city is a prominent feature of Peshawar. The city inside the wall is called óó AndroonDeDShehar LL or walled city. One could enter the walled city through different gates. In Peshawar those gates were 16 in number. They were given different names depending upon the kind of people and places inside or areas outside the gates. The walled city and its gates were damaged by people through encroachments. Except for few hundred feet of the wall and 4 to 5 of the gates could survive. However, people who loved culture and heritage tried not only to preserve the remaining parts but also to restore the damaged and encroached parts. Now, most parts of the wall and gates have been restored. In this paper, an attempt has been made to give full picture of the wall and its 8 gates. Besides getting information from various sources, the researcher himself visited all those areas which have been discussed in the article. Moreover a group of students also interviewed dwellers of the area.
