The central citadel, set up in 1730 is
square in layout and stands on a
slightly raised ground.The whole
monument is encircled by a shallow wide
moat. The protective walls are 8 km in
circumference pierced by 10 gateways and
studded with 72 bastions. The gateway to
the fort is protected with anti-elephant
strikes.
Alwar: Alwar is a nice mix
of the old and the new, the green and
the dry. Lying on the fringes of the
Aravalli Range in eastern Rajasthan, the

of jagged, craggy rocks. The princely
state of Alwar came up only in the late
18th century when the once mighty Mughal
Empire was breathing its last.
