About Bahu Fort in Jammu

The history of Bahu Fort is as old as the history of the Jammu city. Bahu Fort, Jammu, is one of the most beautiful historical places situated on the banks of the Tawi river. The architectural style of the fort is influenced by Mughal architectural style. Sandstones and brinks are the backbones of this marvelous fort. The fort is also one of the most visited structures situated in Jammu district. It is situated at a distance of 4.1 km from the Jammu Tawi Railway and only 5 km away from the city center.

History of Bahu Fort

The history of Bahu Fort dates back to over 3000 years back when it was established by Raja Bahucholan. Later, renovations were made during the Dogra dynasty. The city is known to be named after the then king of the Dogra Dynasty, Raja Jambu Lochan. As per legends, Raja Jambu Lochan appeared at this place while hunting and got awe-struck by the beauty of the place. Years later, his brother Raja Bahucholan established the fort. The fort was rebuilt again in the year 1585. The present structure of the fort was built by Maharaja Gulab Singh.

Bahu Mela

Bahu Mela is one of the most vibrantly celebrated festivals in Jammu. Bahu Fort is the place where this festival is hosted. Best of all, it is celebrated twice in a year, i.e., during the months of March and April and September and October. Bahu Mela takes place during Navratri.

    I recently had the pleasure of going on a trip organized by Nisha, our wonderful trip advisor, and Imtiyaz, our skilled driver. From start to finish, the experience was smooth, enjoyable, and well-organized. Nisha was incredibly helpful and attentive to every detail. She made sure that all our pr

Her friendly demeanor and local knowledge really added to the overall experience, making us feel comfortable and excited for every part of the journey. Imtiyaz, our driver, was equally impressive. Not only did he navigate the roads with skill and ease, but he was also courteous and respectful throughout the trip. He made sure to take us to some of the best restaurants and food spots in the area, giving us a true taste of the local cuisine. He was also very considerate of the group's needs, especially when it came to stopping at clean and convenient locations for rest breaks, which was particularly appreciated by the women in our group. Together, Nisha and Imtiyaz made this trip unforgettable. I highly recommend their services for anyone looking for a seamless and memorable travel experience! .
