On the edge of the Aravalli Hills, commanding a stunning panorama of Jaipur, is the majestic Nahargarh Fort. It was built in 1734 to defend the area, as is evident in the imposing field guns and the seemingly impenetrable stone facades. There are plenty of stories in the walls of the fort — one says that the fort was named to appease the spirit of a prince Nahar Singh Bhomia, which interfered with the expansion of the fort until a temple was dedicated to the prince. We’re not putting our weight behind that, but we can guarantee that you’ll enjoy the breathtaking views of the Pink City laid out like a carpet below. Don’t skip out on the sculpture park and stunning frescoes in Madhavendra Palace!
