Gwalior fort, Madhya Pradesh

Overlooking the Gwalior Town of Madhya Pradesh is the magnificent Gwalior Fort sitting on top of a Hillock. It is built over a massive sandstone rock across a narrow, precipitous hill called Gopachal. Amazed by its beauty, the Late Mughal Emperor Babur described Gwalior Fort as "The pearl in the necklace of the forts of Hind". This fortress is one of the biggest in India and it houses 4 Jain shrines, seven Hindu temples, various monuments and palaces such as the Man Mandir palace, the Gujari Mahal, the Jahangir Mahal, the Karan Palace and the Shahjahan Mahal. It has two entrances, the one on the North East is the main gate called 'Hathi Pul' accessible after passing through six smaller gates and the other on the South West is called Badalgarh Gate.
