Ranthambore Fort :
The most fascinating and most popular excursion taken from the national park
is to the Ranthambore Fort. This fort was built by the Chauhans in the 10th
century. The fort is located at a very strategic position between north and
central India and hence it was always coveted by many rulers. This fort is famous
for the 'Johar' (suicide by immolation to escape humilitaion) by Rajput women
in 1301AD during the siege by Ala-ud-din Khilji. The temples and tanks add to
the beauty of the fort. The seven gates and massive curtain walls, crowning
a fall-topped hill presents a majestic view.
