Ranthambhor
Fort
The
history of the area Sawai Madhopur revolves round the Ranthambhor Fort.
Surrounded by the Vindhyas and Aravalis, amidst vast and denuded tracts of
Rajasthan, lies the oasis of biomass in an ecological desert, the Great
Ranthambhor. No one knows exactly when this fort was built. The most eminent
ruler of the fort was Rao Hamir who ruled around 1296 AD.
There
are various places of historical interest inside the fort namely Toran Dwar,
Mahadeo Chhatri, Sameton Ki Haveli, 32-pillared Chhatri, Mosque and the Ganesh
temple, the biggest attraction of the fort.
