The Great Amer
I always had a dream to see three forts in Rajasthan-Amer, Mehrangarh and Chittorgarh. Mehrangarh I experienced last month. Today I have planned to see Amer so that is why I am here.
Established along the hilltop outside Jaipur. It was built by Raja Man Singh in the 16thCentury and was completed by Sawai Jai Singh in the 18th century. You can have a Paranomic view of the city. The fortress is a mixture of Mughal and Rajput architecture and is built in red sandstone and white marble.
