Itinerary

On the first day, leave from Udaipur and start your 2-hour journey towards Chittorgarh Fort, the largest fort in India and a UNESCO World Heritage site. Upon arrival, explore the Chittorgarh Fort, the capital of Mewar, and sprawls over the hill 180 meters in height over an area of 280 ha above the plains of the valley drained by the Berach River. The fort has several historical palaces, gates, a temple and two prominent commemorative towers.
 
Legend has it that Alauddin Khilji, who was the first to sack Chittor, was so besotted by the regal beauty of Rani Padmini, he was overpowered by a desire to possess her. But the noble queen preferred death over dishonour & committed "Jauhar" (mass self-immolation).
 
the 9-metre wide Vijaya Stambha or the Tower of Victory, located within the Chittor Fort. The tower was constructed by Rana Kumbha, the Mewar king, in 1448 to commemorate his victory over Mahmud Khilji and is dedicated to Lord Vishnu.
 
Continue your visit to the Kriti Stambha or Tower of Fame, another important feature of Chittor Fort. The Solanki-style architectural tower is 22-metre long and was established by the first Jain Tirthankar. Explore the Padmini Palace, the home of Rani Padmini, lying within proximity of Chittorgarh Fort.
