Day Trip to The Kumbhalgarh Fort from Udaipur

The fort's thick wall stretches some 36 kms and is wide enough to take eight horses abreast. Maharana Fateh Singh renovated the fort in the 19th century. The Fort also provides a panoramic view of the countryside from the top. The Badal Mahal Palace is right at the top of the fort. Seven huge and imposing gates stand like sentinels at the approaches. The palace has beautiful rooms and is painted in the colours of green, white and turquoise, thus providing an interesting contrast to the raw and grim fortress.
