Chittorgargh

Chittorgargh: The largest fort complex in Rajasthan, we took a day trip from Udaipur ( just 112 km away ) to visit this monster of a place! Chittorgargh town is a bit of a sprawl which obscures the view somewhat. It's such a huge fort that any pictures from ground level do not do it any justice. All the pics here are from within the fort. The fort complex houses many temples ( 130 ) and lots of old ruins.


Just a small part of the ramparts
