Taragarh Fort, Bundi

"Taragarh Fort must have been built by angels not by human beings," commented Rudyard Kipling. It looks beautiful. A steep climb up the hill, then through enormous gates decorated with elephants which are now in ruins, we were inside the Taragarh Fort of Bundi. In its heydays this fort was well known for the tunnels criss-crossing the entire hill side facilitating the King and his men to flee in case of imminent defeat in wars.
