Construction on the fort began in the 1340's. In its day it must have been amazing, now it is a ghost of it former splendour. It is definitely with the walk to the top of the hill to explore. It is large and has spectacular views all around. Then you can walk back down and have a look at Garh Palace

The Taragarh Fort is the oldest fort in Rajasthan and is build on a hill overlooking Bundi. It is now seriously overgrown, hard to walk up to and has lots of monkeys. The greenish tint of the stones shows that they used serpentine instead of sandstone to build it. It is a pity it is not better preserved.

A highlight of our tour of Rajasthan! An impressive and unique fort with views of the city and surrounding valley. Some reviews have complained that it is overgrown, but these complaints are overblown, and if anything only adds to the ancient feeling of the place, like you've stumbled upon an ancient ruin somehow preserved. Go with a guide - you don't want to miss the paintings, but you need someone to explain the interesting stories behind them. Well worth visiting, the fort was every bit as interesting as some of the more famous sites like the Amer Fort, and the town of Bundi is a friendly place that's a welcome break from the hustle of the big cities, with fewer tourists and hawkers
