Top Forts in Rajasthan

Rajasthan’s forts are not just stone monuments; they are also signposts of vigour, perseverance and innovative architecture. Perched immovable sentinels on choice hilltops, they beautifully guard the tales of countless battles and royal intrigues.

Amber Fort in Jaipur is a fantastic example of Mughal and Hindu architectural styles. Its intricate carvings, beautiful courtyards, and resplendent halls, including Diwan-i-Aam and the resplendent Sheesh Mahal, are worth exploring. It was built of red sandstone and marble.

Mehrangarh Fort of Jodhpur sits atop a 400-foot hill, commanding a view of the cityscape. It’s awe-inspiring in its scope and imposing walls. Within the fort lie a few stunning palaces, like the Phool Mahal and Moti Mahal, each adorned with intricate courtyards and carvings.

Jaisalmer Fort is one-fifth of the population of the city lives in Jaisalmer Fort, a living fort built with yellow sandstone, and it glows like gold in the sun. The fort complex encloses ancient havelis, temples, and shops are plenty in the fort’s narrow, turning alleys.

Chittorgarh Fort symbolises sacrifice and is associated with the tale of Rani Padmini and the Johar or collective self-immolation that Rajput women undertook. The fort complex houses monuments that each tell a story of valour and courage, like the Kirti Stambh.

Kumbhalgarh Fort is well-known for its enormous wall, frequently referred to as the Great Wall of India. The renowned warrior Maharana Pratap was born at the fort, recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
