Abstract	Urban centres have always been hubs of economic revival and social amalgam. Their rise and growth assumed speed in India during the 13th and 14th centuries, with the coming of the Turks. The Sultan Firuz Shah (1351-88) exceeds his counterparts by maintaining recognizable planning for constructing high buildings, mausoleums, gardens, mosques, water tanks, canals, and similar facilities. This paper basically comprised a detailed study of the town planning of “Hisar-i-Firuza,” which was constructed under the supervision of Firuz Shah Tughluq himself, who stayed here for a sufficient time; the establishment of the town was the Sultan’s reaction to the challenge of reclaiming this region of the desert. This paper is enriched with some primary sources and secondary sources as well. The present study aims to investigate the town planning of Hisar-i-Firuza.
