Fortress sights in Jaipur

  1. A

    Nahargarh

    Built in 1734 and extended in 1868, sturdy Nahargarh overlooks the city from a sheer ridge to the north. An 8km road runs up to the fort through the hills from Jaipur, or it can be reached along a zigzagging 2km footpath. There are some interesting furnished rooms in the fort and glorious views – it’s a popular picnic spot on weekends, and the perfect place to catch the sunset.
