One of the best-preserved and largest forts in India, the Mehrangarh Fort towers 400 feet above the blue city of Jodhpur.

Mehrangarh, located in Jodhpur, Rajasthan, is one of the largest forts in India. Built in around 1459 by Rao Jodha, the fort is situated 410 feet above the city and is enclosed by imposing thick walls. Inside its boundaries there are several palaces known for their intricate carvings and expansive courtyards. Internal courtyard palaces are the main attraction. Moti Mahal, Sheesh Mahal, Phool Mahal to name a few. They are complimented with amazing architectural fabric in the facades. Typical Hindu Architectural forms are reflected from the structures. Jharokha or the hanging balconies add a unique flavour to the overall aesthetics. Arched windows put a whole new dimension to the style. Intricate detailing, floral motifs and geometric jails add the royal richness. The space composition of solid and void throughout creates the extra drama with pale red tone of sunset.
