The Fort

Description:
The indomitable pride of Chittaur, the fort is a massive structure with many gateways, built by the later Maurya rulers in the 7th century A.D. It is built on a 180 mts high hill and sprawls over 700 acres of land. The tablets and the chhatris inside are the reminders of the Rajput heroism. The main gates are the Padal pol, the Bhairon pol, the Ram pol and the Hanuman pol. The fort has magnificent monuments all fine examples of the Rajput architecture.
It is located on a steep hill besides the modern township. A zigzag ascent of about one km. leads the tourist to its main gate, the Ram pol. On the way one can see two chhatris or memorials of Jaimal and Patta. It was here they fell while defending the fort during the siege of 1568. Though most of the monuments are in ruin, they reflect the glory and grandeur of its rulers.
