Nagaur Fort Tour at Ahhichatragarh
After breakfast at the hotel, the morning is free to relax and enjoy the surroundings of Ranvas. Nagaur forms an interesting part of a tailor made Rajasthan itinerary due to its well preserved architectural heritage and its quieter atmosphere compared to the larger cities of the region. In the afternoon, visit Ahhichatragarh Fort, one of the key historical landmarks in Nagaur. The fort was first established in the fourth century and later expanded during the eighteenth century. Its design reflects a combination of early regional styles and later Mughal influences. Several palace rooms contain original murals dating back to the fourteenth century, offering an important example of early wall painting traditions in Rajasthan. The layout of the fort, with its courtyards and passageways, allows a clear understanding of how the complex evolved through different periods. In the early evening, take a walk along the fort ramparts. From this elevated position, you can see the town below as daily life continues, along with cenotaphs dedicated to former rulers of Nagaur. A small family temple located on the ramparts forms part of the traditional structure of the fort and adds to the sense of continuity between past and present. Return to your hotel for the night as part of your private India tour.
