About Bhangarh Fort in Alwar

Famed for its historical ruins, Bhangarh Fort- situated at the borders of the Sariska Tiger Reserve in Rajasthan’s Alwar district, was built in the 17th century. Recognized as the most haunted place in India, Bhangarh Fort can be located on the way between Delhi and Jaipur. The Fort is famous all over the world for its eerie vibe and haunted stories. 

History of Bhangarh Fort

Bhangarh Fort in Alwar is said to have been built in the 17th century. It is one of the most popular sites in Alwar, Rajasthan. The fort was built for Madho Singh by his father Bhagwant Das. When it was built in the year 1573, everything about Bhangarh ka Kila was very positive but soon after the year 1783, the fort began to witness downfall and people from the nearby areas started shifting to other villages.

Highlights of Bhangarh Fort

Constructed in the 17th century, the historical ruins of this fort still give a chill down your spine as soon as you enter the place through its main gate. 

Also referred to as Bhoot Bangla, Bhangarh Fort, Rajasthan comprises numerous palaces, Havelis, and temples inside its premises. The royal palace can be located at the extreme end of the place. 

Besides that, this haunted fort also has four entry gates, namely: the Delhi Gate, Ajmeri Gate, the Lahori Gate, and the Fulbari Gate.

As you are about to enter this fort, a tin and a wooden hoarding placed by the Archeological Survey of India warns you to make an entry post-sunset and before sunrise, You are also forbidden to use a vehicle to explore the fort after that point.

Night Excursion to Bhangarh Fort

It is legally not allowed to visit Bhangarh Fort at night due to the eerie stories connected to the fort. Many people have claimed the presence of some spirit inside the fort after the dusk sets in. The Archaeological Survey of India also warns tourists not to go inside the fort after sunset or before sunrise. Locals state that whoever visits the Bhangarh ka Kila at night doesn’t come back the next day. It is also reported that there is some negative energy witnessed around the fort premises that claims to have some paranormal effect. 

Positive Facts about Bhangarh Fort

Bhangarh Fort in Rajasthan is very famous for its ancient architecture. The layout of the fort is very well carved out with wooden gates in four different directions. This layout is said to be similar to that of the city of Shahjahanabad. Inside the fort, there are temples and a miniature waterfall. The ruins of the fort give ample information about the techniques and architectural style used during the 17th century. Tourists enjoy a trip to Bhangarh if they visit it during the day time.

Some Famous Legends of Bhangarh Fort

It is believed that this Bhangarh Fort, Alwar was built post an approval was taken from an ascetic Guru Balu Nath who used to meditate at this place. As asked by the ascetic, the king swore that the shadows of the fort won’t touch his area of meditation. However, when the king couldn’t fulfill his promise, the guru cursed the entire village will remain roofless. And since then, whenever a roof is built, it collapses within a few minutes.

Another story of Bhangarh Fort is that a Tantrik named Singhia fell in love with the Princess Ratnavati. The Tantrik tried to win over the princess using his magic, but the princess got to know about his evil plans, and thus, ordered to kill him. It is believed that the Tantrik also cursed the villagers to remain roofless ever.

    Rajasthan Trip 17 Jan to 23 Jan 2029 We reached Ahemadabad from Pune and We have started our Journey from Ahemadabad airport. I have requested for non CNG vehicle due to luggage carriers restrictions in Rajasthan they told me they will arrange Etios for whole journey. Surprisingly back2holiday arran
    ged Inova Crysta for one way journey from Ahemadabad to Udaipur in same comitted value. On day 1 we have got 2nd surprise that our complete journey driver was not able to reach udaipur due to some reasons but they already made plan B for the same, That's the capability they have and vehicle given was ertiga. In Udaipur we have booked Hotel Palash regency for two nights, It is avery good hotel and breakfast quality was also good. Back2holiday has covered all the sightseeing in your package but due to time constraints you will not able to visit all the places, I missed out Bagur ki haveli and Jagmandir. Places we manged to visit in two days Fateh Sagar Lake, Aquarium, Wax museam Saheliyo ki bari, Vintage car museum, City palace, Karni mata temple, Sajjangad and Jagdish temple. Driver suggested hotel for lunch and dinner as below Day 1 Shri Krishna Dal bati Day 2 56 Bhog In Udaipur driver taken us to local market where they don't bargain one jacket we purchased at 700 same jacket was available at 300 Gadi sar lake. 3rd day We started our journey towards Jaisalmer it was arround 600 kms from Udaipur that day we missed out night show of Gadisar lake and we directly reached Hotel Swan Haveli, This hotel is one of the worst hotel of all my hotel selection in this trip. We traveled 13 hrs and we wanted to take a rest after dinner but here surprise come, Their chef was on leave hence the restaurant was not taking order, Driver left us and went to guest house for rest. We need to take 15 mins walk for dinner. Day 4 Morning breakfast time was 8 am, But they started breakfast when we reach rooftop restaurant. Quality was average and options were limited to poha, alu paratha and breads. Then we visited Jaisalmer Fort, Driver suggested to take guide and we agreed. He helped us with history and sightseeing. Later he takes us to Hat bazar, we purchased one maharani saree at cost 1250 later same saree we found at 400 at Pushkar lake. We visited gadi sar lake after hat bazar. We skipped to visit Bada bagh and Jain Temple while traveling towards Dunes. Then we continued our journey towards Sam Sand dunes, we booked Juma camp for Jaisalmer 2nd day stay, Camp food and night cultural program was wonderful. Shailendra from back2holiday arranged a Desert safari in Thar at reasonal cost. We enjoyed Camel ride, ATV ride and sunset at Dunes. It was a wonderful evening. Day 5 Early morning we started journey towards Jodhpur, As per drivers plan we visited Jaisalmer war museum. In Jodhpur we visited a Jasvant Thada and Fort, Merangad Fort was supposed to close entry by 5 pm so quickly we visited jaswant thada. Later driver dropped us to hotel Kuchman Haveli. Then we took a auto a visited Ghanta Ghar, Janta sweets and Toorji ka kalra at our own cost of auto. Hotel and food quality was good. In Jodhpur we missed Mandore Garden due non availability of time. Day 6 Morning we visited Umaid Bhavan Palace and we started journey towards Pushkar, and visited a one and only Brahma Mandir in world. For night stay we reached Jaipur in Hotel Golden manor, Hotel was good but food quality was poor. I got terrible experience at restaurant. We ordered a Dal Khichadi for baby but there was Burning smell to it. Decided not eat and went to nearby outside hotel suggested by driver. Golden manor hotel is veg non veg restaurant. Day 7 It was raining in Jaipur. By the time we reach Amer fort rain stopped. We skipped Jaigarh fort as suggested by driver and visited Nahargar fort. Later we took lunch and visited a City palace, Jantar mantar, Hawa Mahal, Albert hall and Birla temple. Then driver dropped us to Jaipur airport. This all regarding my Rajasthan Trip, I thank to Trip Planner Ms. Priti Sharma to make it in my budget and making good arrangements. Tour manager Shailendra also in touch during all 7 day journey, I thank him also. Driver was good didn't exceed a speed limit of 80 km/hr in any cases which makes us our journey comfortable and safe. I traveled with my parents and our 2 yr old child. Etios car was old, Can arrange a good quality car is my suggestion. Jaisalmer Juma Camp and Sam Sand Dunes evening time.

    Akash's 3 days trip to Alwar

    This was my second trip with Back to Holidays, and once again it turned out to be a wonderful experience. This time, I traveled with them for my Jaisalmer trip, and everything was managed perfectly. My first trip with Back to Holidays was also very smooth, which is why I decided to choose them ag
    ain. For my second trip, the planning, coordination, and execution were even better. From cab and driver services to hotels and sightseeing, everything was well organized and hassle-free. I would especially like to appreciate Preeti and Shailendra Singh, who coordinated with me throughout the entire trip. Their constant support, timely communication, and attention to detail ensured that my journey was comfortable and stress-free. Because of their excellent coordination, my entire trip went very smoothly and became a memorable experience. Overall, I am extremely satisfied with Back to Holidays and would highly recommend them to anyone planning a trip. I will definitely choose them again for my future travels.
