Cradled in a cluster of thirteen mountain peaks of Aravali range, the Kumbhal Garh Fort is a formidable midieval citadel. Rising 6000 feet above see level, the fort was built in the 15th centuryA.D. by Maharana Kumbha of Meawr Dynesty. It is principal fortificatin in Mewar region after Chittaur Garh and is located 90 KMs norh of Udaipur.
The man made monument visible from space has 36 KM long ramparted wall protection, wide enough that one can drive a JEEP on it ! A visit really worth its efforts in gold if you want to understand the importance of Mewar and Rajput style of warfare. The site dates back to fortified structre of Mauryan Kings.
