Bhainsrorgarh
A clifftop fort resonant with the lore of history
If forts are meant to be daunting, insurmountable, resonant with the lore of history, Bhainsrorgarh fort exceeds expectations. Perched atop a slate cliff that plunges into the placid waters of the Chambal river, this once-royal residence retains its grandeur still. Bhainsrorgarh Fort, today is a heritage hotel run by the descendants of the Chundawat clan that will spoil you with noble comforts and signature, gourmet meals. Explore the countryside, cruise down the river, visit the nearby Bundi fort and Baroli temples, picnic on a river island or simply enjoy the views of the river from the traditional jharokas, an overhanging balcony structure introduced by the Mughals.
