Being placed on the eastern bank of the Chambal River, Kota comprises mammoth citadels and palaces along with highly developed industries. Kota region exposes a splendid fort by the name Taragarh Fort marvelously located at the remoteness of 39 Km from Kota which happened to be a dwelling place of noble Rajput kings when their supremacy was at zenith.
Taragarh Fort is thoughtfully constructed in 1345 A.D. and was a stranglehold of Kota. While observing the fort, your eyes would be lodged at the legendary big gun called Bhim Burj suspended on the largest earthwork of the fort. Side by side the fort also houses some colossal reservoirs of stone engraved out of the stony base of the fort that held water for the townsfolk who took protection inside the fort walls when on blockade. The fort doles out a scenic sight of the city below at time of twilight.
Moreover, there is a steep alleyway that paves the way to the main entrance of this intrepid Taragarh Fort which is somewhere around 39 Km away from the city’s hub. The massive gateways have beautifully etched carvings of elephants on them. Lakshmi Pol, Phuta Darwaza and Gagudi ki Phatak are the three doorways of these heavily fortified fortifications. In its splendor, Taragarh Fort was branded for its nauseating tunnels running crossways the hillsides frequently used to flee the danger that prowled for the Rajput kings.
