To experience the valor and royalty of the erstwhile Chittorgarh is a must for any vivid traveler on fleek. Constructed by the Maharana Pratap Singh, the palace used to serve the purpose of a home for him. Maharana Pratap Singh deliberately built the palace in Rajasthani style to reveal his quality taste for art and culture. The large number of corridors and pillars of the palace are salient features of Rajasthani architecture.
The palace is a glimpse of likes and dislikes of Maharana Pratap Singh. At the heart of this spectacular piece of history is a museum, with artefacts of the time made of crystal. In fact, the collection was so vast that in 1968, it was realized that the collection is big enough to be exhibited in a museum. It is only the fact that the collection of crystals and collectables was so fast that major part of the fort was converted into a museum.
If the grandiose of Maharana Pratap Singh was not enough, we have also added that special and sedulous visit to Rajasmand for a scenic and serene experience visiting the Rajasmand Lake, build in the 17th century by the erstwhile king of Mewar and a heritage walk of the Kumbalgarh Fort, a testament to the valour and indomitable spirit of the Rajputs, as a part of this splendid Rajasthan Tour.
