I am not sure if tourists can go in there, but it looked great, you can see it before entering the Amer fort from the west gate.

The fort was built by Raja Man Singh I, Maharaja and his use to live here. The fort was constructed in keeping all essential requirements of the fort. Devi temple at the entrance of the fort, Diwaan-e-khaas, Diwaan-e-Aam, Sheesh Mahal etc. The fort has an aesthetic ambience which is very well blended and portrays the well-balanced mixture of the Rajput and Hindu styles.Manish K.https://www.blogger.com/profile/06212188404187914648noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3550933650092646667.post-76096786508661343902012-09-15T13:38:33.696+05:302012-09-15T13:38:33.696+05:30Absolutely, Indrani!!Absolutely, Indrani!!Anuradha Shankarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10460310200883662583noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3550933650092646667.post-71837171667405112812012-09-14T18:39:28.733+05:302012-09-14T18:39:28.733+05:30A great place to visit and revisit.A great place to visit and revisit.Indranihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13097788106899971708noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3550933650092646667.post-80389178926199952102012-09-14T13:26:09.238+05:302012-09-14T13:26:09.238+05:30Thanks Sudha!!

In fact, the people who took us told Samhith that we could go up on an elephant, so he was looking forward to it, and when we didnt see any, he was rather disappointed.. which is why we went by the road instead of taking the route from the front :DAnuradha Shankarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10460310200883662583noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3550933650092646667.post-32481102937610549962012-09-14T00:39:31.799+05:302012-09-14T00:39:31.799+05:30That is a magnificent fort.
