The Chittorgarh Fort is located to the southwestern part of Jaipur, about 150 miles from the capital city. Today this ancient marvel may be in ruins that many consider it to be but it still stands as a perfect example for what vintage architecture was all about. It was in the year 1303 as per historical records, this fort was attacked by Alauddin Khilji, the ruler of Delhi. If the same are to be believed then there is a tragic story behind the havoc that occurred at the place. At present, the huge fort walls, palaces and gateways stand witness to the turbulent past of the place.
