Mehrangarh Fort, one of the largest forts in India, is situated in Jodhpur, Rajasthan. Perched on a 410 feet elevated hill, the fort was built by Rao Jodha in 1459. The thick walls encompassing the fort have witnessed battles and narrate the saga of the bygone era. The fort complex contains several palaces, which are known for their intricate carvings and expansive courtyards. The fort's museum houses a splendid collection of the Rathore rulers' costumes, arms, paintings, and decorated period rooms. Visitors marvel at the architectural brilliance and the panoramic view of the blue city of Jodhpur from the ramparts of Mehrangarh. This architectural masterpiece with its rich history is not just a fortress but a symbol of the royal past of India.
