The landscape is filled with an aura of tension as gunfire erupts from various points across the city. The remnants of war are visible everywhere, reminding us of the intense battles fought on these grounds. In particular, attention is drawn to prominent landmarks such as the Malakoff Tower, Mamelon Hill, and Redan Fort – all key strategic positions fiercely contested by both sides during the siege.
