Nahargarh Fort - Tiger Fort

We had a bit of a sleep in and late breakfast then our hotel organised a good tuk tuk driver to take us to the tiger fort. I am not sure the age of the fort structure. The palace within the fort, Madhavendra palace, was built a little less than 200 years ago. It is quite a nice place, 2 stories with 9 apartments. The layout and rooms are all quite basic with built in shelves. There is painting on the walls, roof and floor, there is not a lot of sculpting but the effect of the paint makes it look like there is. The sad thing is that the visitors deface the walls and throw rubbish around.
Basically we had a great day in a fantastically scenic spot.
