Fort Chittorgarh is a very sad story, which is kept by its walls for many centuries. The fort was built by King False Raval on a very high hill among the plain nine centuries ago for his beloved daughter. This grandiose structure has many gates.
In Chittogorie lived women and men whose dignity and courage are legendary. Fort has preserved a large number of interesting monuments of architecture, dedicated to their heroism. The fact is that they stood for their city to the last, reflecting the onslaught of the Great Moguls. In a moment of desperation, the inhabitants went out to meet their enemies and burned themselves to death on ritual fire, but they did not raise the white flag! Even the queen herself burned herself, so as not to get to the Sultan from the enemy camp. Death in the name of preserving honor at the stake is a favorite plot of mythology and modern cinema.
The tragic past of the fort still does not feel at all outwardly, the journey delivers an unforgettable vivid sensation. Fort Chittorgarh has won hearts and inspired the creative activity of more than one generation of creative personalities.
Here you can see the ruins and preserved buildings. Magnificent in its beauty are arches, altars and domes in temples, towers, palaces. Every vault, every stone is illuminated by an Indian gentle sun. You can not help admiring the carved skilled craftsmen so smoothly, like a tree, with female figures, silhouettes of brave Rajput warriors, sacred animals in the walls of churches.
Earlier in the fortress there were a little less than a hundred reservoirs, built primarily to provide water to the army, but to this day their number is about two dozen. At the foot of small indoor ponds, one can see images of the Buddha guarding peace and peace in the fort.
