Lohagarh Fort, Bharatpur


As I had an hour until Banke Bihari Temple opened, I decided to take a round around Lohagarh Fort in Bharatpur. It was quite a long walk as it was a big fort.
Lohagarh meant made up of Iron Fort. Jat rulers of Bharatpur built it.
Maharaja Suraj Mal built numerous forts one of them was Lohagarh Fort. The fort was considered invincible as it was surrounded by a huge moat and was made up of thick walls.  
Inside Fort there was a museum but alas it was closed on that day.
Maharaja Suraj Mal statue was worth seeing.
Numerous stories of bravery of Jat kings were written over there on the stones.
The view from the top showed some age old havelies.
