Step into history as you explore the six breathtaking Hill Forts of Rajasthan (built during 8th to 18th Cent CE)—majestic strongholds that once stood as the power centers of Rajput kings.
1. Chittor Fort, Chittorgarh Dist., by Chitrangada Mori during the 7th Cent CE
2. Kumbhalgarh Fort, Rajsamand Dist., by Rana Kumbha in 1448 CE
3. Ranthambore Fort, Sawai Madhopur Dist., by Sapaldaksha during the mid-10th Cent CE
4. Gagron Fort, Jhalawar Dist., by Bijaldev Singh Dod., during the 12th Cent CE
5. Amber Fort, Jaipur city., by Man Singh I in 1592 CE
6. Jaisalmer Fort, Jaisalmer city., by Rawal Jaisal in 1155 CE
From the golden sands of Jaisalmer to the forested heights of Ranthambore, these forts blend strategic defense with stunning architecture, drawing influences from Sultanate and Mughal styles.
Within their walls, you'll find grand palaces, vibrant markets, sacred temples, and remarkable water systems—some still in use today! Whether it's Chittorgarh’s legendary sieges, Kumbhalgarh’s endless walls, or Amber’s Rajput-Mughal grandeur, these forts whisper tales of valor and culture. Ready to walk through time?
