About Taragarh Fort
"Taragarh Fort must have been built by angels not by human beings," commented Rudyard Kipling.
The Taragarh Fort, built in 1354, with its imposing structure of stone, is situated on a steep hill and has massive battlements and ramparts. The fort welcomes the tourist through an enormous gateway. Once inside the fort, one can see the Bhim Burj, the largest battlement, and a huge water reservoir carved out of solid rock that once supplied water to the palace.
The fort also provides a panoramic view of the entire town of Bundi. The view over the town and surrounding countryside from the top are magical, especially at sun set. Taragarh is reached by steep road leading up the hillside to its enormous gateway. Take a path up behind the chitra Shala, go east along the inside of the ramparts then left up the steep stone ramp just before the Dudha Mahal, a small disused building 200m from the palace.
