Chittaurgarh is all about the romance of history. Where a less imaginative eye can see only a mound of rock, the artistic mind can find a glorious past of 275 years etched on stone, a time when death was preferred to dishonour and swords clashed with alarming regularity. A magnificent fort watches over the town, defying the every-dayness of the landscape with stories so incredible that only a thin line seems to separate fact from fiction.
Indeed, the story of Chittaur is primarily the story of its 700-acre fort.
