Jaigarh Fort at Jaipur,Rajasthan,India

Visiting Time: All days 9:00 AM - 4:30 PM
Visit Duration: Around 1 hour

The Jaigarh Fort was built by Sawai Jai Singh II and has a length of 3 km and width of 1 km. The fort faces Amber Fort and Maota Lake. There is an option of taking our vehicles straight into the fort through the Doongar Darwaza by paying an extra parking fee for the vehicle or one can simply buy a ticket for oneself and go walking around the fort. There is also an entrance to this fort through the Awani Darwaza in the east. But I opted the Doongar Darwaza 🙂 It was packed with a lot of vehicles today and it took us almost 20 minutes to reach the parking lot which is just 500 mts from the Doongar Darwaza. On the way I saw those huge underground tanks where the rainwater through the canals used to get stored!
