🏰 A Brief History
Located in the stunning city of Jaipur, Rajasthan, Amber Fort, also known as Amer Fort, is a remarkable blend of Hindu and Mughal architecture. Constructed with red sandstone and marble, this magnificent fort represents the grandeur of the Rajput Maharajas.
The history of Amber dates back to 967 CE when it was established by Raja Alan Singh. However, the fort as we see it today was primarily expanded by Raja Man Singh in the 16th century.
✨ Architectural Beauty
Amber Fort is known for its majestic gates, cobbled paths, and large ramparts. The Sheesh Mahal or the 'Palace of Mirrors' is one of the highlights, renowned for its intricate mirror work that lights up the entire room with the single flame of a candle.
Another notable feature is the Diwan-e-Aam, or the 'Hall of Public Audience', known for its beautiful colonnades and latticed galleries.
