Reviewed By TheHumbleTravellers - Greater Noida, India

This is the birth place of one of the legendary heros of India - Maha Rana Pratap and it has world's second largest wall after Great Wall of China - this fort's boundary wall spans 36 KM. Beautifully constructed fort has various interesting facts and its top is at such height that you feel like flying in air as winds blows without any interruption at the top. Must visit if your nearby. Lot of walking required so be ready for good exercise Guides are all private and you need to bargain and can reach price of INR 400-450 Very old temple also inside the fort, so you may want to pay tribute to Kul Devi of Kumbhal Dynasty
