It is safe to say that a visit to Rajasthan will remain grossly incomplete if you do not partake in an appreciation of history.<br \/>\nTo help you with that, here is a compilation of the 10 most famous <strong>forts and palaces of India<\/strong> in <strong>Rajasthan<\/strong> that you must visit at least once in your lifetime.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>1.

The curious thing about this monument is its rich Rajput architecture that is highlighted by Mughal traits. Inside the palace, you will find well-maintained gardens and places like the Chandra Mahal. It is included in most <strong>classical Rajasthan tours.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Suggested Tour :\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.shikhar.com\/celebrate-holi-in-jaipur-sti332\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Celebrate Holi In Jaipur 2019<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Best time to visit<\/strong>&#8211; October to March<br \/>\n<strong>Opening Hours:<\/strong> 9:30 am to 5 pm<\/p>\n<h3>3.

Apart from the fort itself, the splendid view of the Aravalli Hills as well as the Amber Fort is another attraction visitors can look forward to here. There were some rumours about a hidden treasure in the dark depths of the fort, which is why it was closed down for visitors for quite some time. However, it has reopened its gates, and can now be enjoyed by tourists from all over the country and the world.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Best time to visit<\/strong>&#8211; November to February<br \/>\n<strong>Opening Hours:<\/strong> 9 am to 4:30 pm<\/p>\n<h3><strong>4.

The fort also has a spooky tale associated with it, as it is said to be haunted by the spirit of King Nahar. Inside the fort, visitors flock to Madhavendra Bhavan, that was used as a summer retreat for the king\u2019s family. Be sure to visit this fort on your next <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.shikhar.com\/rajasthan-cultural-tour-sti117\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Rajasthan cultural tour<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Best time to visit<\/strong>&#8211; November to February<br \/>\n<strong>Opening Hours:<\/strong> 10 am to 5:30 pm<\/p>\n<h3>5.

The fort is linked to almost all the stories told of Rajputana times and bears the marks of bravery left behind by a series of powerful kings. From attacks, sieges, sacrifices, and victories- a little of everything can be found within the walls of Chittor. The Kirti Stambh and the Vijay Stambh are the two major attractions in the premises of the fort.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Best time to visit<\/strong>&#8211; November to February<br \/>\n<strong>Opening Hours:<\/strong> 8 am to 7:30 pm<\/p>\n<h3>6.

It is one of the few forts in India that remain unconquered to this day. This is probably because of the well-planned security system surrounding the fort, which includes a great wall and deep moats. Within the walls of the fort, tourists will be thrilled to find attractions like the Chandra Mahal, Phool Mahal, Karan Mahal and the like. The museum too is a great place to visit if you want to know more about the life and times of the people who lived when the fort was constructed.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Best time to visit<\/strong>-November to February<br \/>\n<strong>Opening Hours:<\/strong> 10 am to 4:30 pm<\/p>\n<h3><strong>7.

The fort itself is located in Jaisalmer, and is alternatively known as the \u201cSone ka Qila\u201d or \u201cthe Golden Fort\u201d. The fort was built in 1156 by Rawal Jaisal and has witnessed the ups and downs of Rajput history through centuries. There are many attractions nestled within the walls of the fort, including the Merchant Havelis, the Lakshminath Mandir, the Raj Mahal, and of course, the 4 stupendous gates of entry to the fort.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Best time to visit<\/strong>&#8211; October to March<br \/>\n<strong>Opening Hours:<\/strong> 8:30 am to 5 pm<\/p>\n<h3><strong>8.

Lying 400 feet above the main city of Jodhpur, the Mehrangarh Fort holds the marks of history in the form of cannonball indentations on its second gate. There are museums, decorated gardens, palaces bearing intricate artwork and seven magnificent gates to the fort. The sheer beauty and royalty that this fort exudes are enough to attract the attention of those who are not even interested in knowing more about the place.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Best time to visit-\u00a0<\/strong>October to March<br \/>\n<strong>Opening Hours:<\/strong> 9 am to 5 pm<\/p>\n<h3><strong>9.

The palace has been listed among the world\u2019s largest gated residential properties, and with 347 rooms within its premises, the position is surely well-deserved. The palace is located at the highest point of the city, that is, the Chittar Hill. It is one of the most magnificent sights that Rajasthan has to offer, especially in the evenings when it stands in contrast to the dark sky behind it.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Best time to visit<\/strong>&#8211; January to December<br \/>\n<strong>Opening Hours:<\/strong> The palace can be visited at any time of the day!<\/p>\n<h3><strong>10.

It is also one of the oldest standing forts in the city. Located in Sawai Madhopur, the Ranthambore Fort was constructed during the rule of the Chauhans in the 8th century atop Thanbhore Hill. The fort is surrounded by a wildlife sanctuary. The fort has a chequered history of its own and was under attack numerous times. It was also captured by the Mughals and used extensively during their reign. The marks of all these attacks remain on the walls of Ranthambore. Apart from the glorious stories that the fort has to offer, there are temples, palaces, barracks that were used by soldiers and gardens within the walls of the fort that make it an attractive tourist point.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Best time to visit<\/strong>&#8211; November to May<br \/>\n<strong>Opening Hours:<\/strong> 10 am to 5 pm<\/p>\n<h5 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Conclusion:-<\/strong><\/h5>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In a world that is constantly changing and upgrading, these historical<strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shikhar.com\/palaces-and-forts-of-rajasthan-sti295\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">palaces and forts of Rajasthan<\/a><\/strong> keep us anchored to our roots and serve as active reminders of the glorious past of our country.
