Mehrangarh Fort in Jodhpur is one of the largest forts in India, perched a good 400 ft above the city, this fortress was built way back in 1459. This gigantic and awe inspiring Fort includes many absolutely beautiful palaces inside its walls. Built by Rao Jodha, who built it as he felt the Mandore fort was no longer safe.
The fort includes the absolutely lovely Moti Mahal - or the Pearl Palace, Sheesha Mahal - the hall of Mirrors, The Phool Mahal - the Palace of Flowers and Takhat Vilas - the chamber of Maharaja Thakhat Sigh.
