JAIGARH FORT "RAJASTHAN"

The jaigarh fort was built by Jai Singh (ii) in 1726. It took 17 generations to built this huge empire. It was during Jai Singh ii when the fort was completed so it was named as Jaigarh fort. His residence is still there in City Palace. mountains  This beautiful fort is on the Hill of eagles( Cheel Ka Teela) of Aravilli ranges.
 
This fort is surrounded by hills all around. During rainy season it looks like a hill station. Tourist often visit this fort during rainy season since the climate gets little mild. The fort was guarded by the guards from all the sides. In Jaigarh the worlds biggest cannon is their. It was also named after Jai Singh's name as Jaivan. The city  also got its name after his name as "JAIPUR". From the fort the city can be viewed. It has many halls of memories and all the rare collection of his photos when he joined army.

Beautiful parks are made inside this fort. Its an amazing example of old art and shows the love of the king toward the art. The extra ordinary amazing carving over the walls shows the skill of the workers of that time.
So when ever you visit Jaipur or Rajasthan do not forget to visit this royal fort.

BHANGARH, ALWAR, JAIPUR RAJASTHAN

There is a belief that Bhangharh is among the worlds most 5 HAUNTED PLACES.No one dares to go ther after sunset. Inspite of this still it is a attraction point for tourist. 
This Garh is located on the outskirt of Jaipur on Jaipur - Delhi highway, on Alwar road. It has an amazing history......
People of Bhangarh say that the princess of Bhangarh (RATNAVATI) was very beautyful and the story is all because of her beauty. Ther lived a Tantrik(black magician) who loved the princess and wanted to marry her but he knew that he was not the match for her. So one day he sent a oil for princess with magic in it. But the princess was clever and knew that it was sent by the tantrik to compel her and make her surrender to him. She threw the oil on the flor and it turned into a boluder which crushed the tantrik. Before dying he cursed the villagers and Bhangarh that nobody will stay happy and noone would be able to stay ther....
He was buried ther and it is said that till date his sprit is alive which doesnot allows anybody to stay ther. The princess perished during the battel of Bhangarh and Ajabgarh. 
It is said that this curse will end only when the princess Ratnavati will step back in that place.
Even today no one is allowed to stay ther after sunset and before sunset. Only a Pandit stays ther in a Hanuman Mandir and he also doesnt dares to come out of it in the night.
