  • Best Forts and Places to Visit in India

Explore Royal India with Me

India is more than travel, India is history, culture and royalty.
I am Akshay Sharma and via AVS Holidays, I have been able to visit numerous amazing destinations in India, and in particular, historic forts that present strong narratives of kings, battles and heritage.
As a traveler, I visit many of the uncovered forts and historical sites in India, but I do not only guide tourists, I guide the explorers, since my home is Kirti Nagar, New Delhi.
In case you are a history and architecture fan and have a royal mood, then this guide is just what you need.

Best Forts to Visit in India

My own recommendations :

Amber Fort

An awesome fort with a rich history and architecture. The palace and fort are combined together making it a must visit.

Mehrangarh Fort

It is one of the biggest Indian forts that provide stunning scenery of the blue city.

Red Fort

An emblem of Indian history and national pride, standing in the center of Delhi.

Gwalior Fort

Also referred to as the Gibraltar of India, it is known by its immense size and a rich history.

Chittorgarh Fort

The greatest fort of India, full of tales of manliness and sacrifice.

Jaisalmer Fort

A living fort in which people continue to live to-day, quite an experience in itself.

Other Places not to miss in India.

Beyond Forts
Forts are fantastic, but I would always recommend to visit them along with other scenic places:

Goa

Ideal in beaches, nightlife and relaxing.

Manali

Perfectly suited to mountain enthusiasts and adventurers.

Kerala

Reputed backwaters, greens and easygoing atmosphere.

Mumbai

Contemporary lifestyle, culture, and beauty.

Varanasi

The greatest fort of India, full of tales of manliness and sacrifice.

Jaisalmer Fort

The city with the power of the spirit, one of the oldest in the world.

Why Visit Forts in India?

At least, as my experience has shown, forts are not only old buildings, but they are living histories of Indian past.

More Than Just Monuments

  • Royal architecture
  • Historical significance
  • Amazing views
  • Cultural heritage
  • Photography opportunities
I always suggest using Akshay Sharma AVS Holiday because once you are at the place, you should also include forts.

My Experience with Historical Travel

Travel Teaches You Something
Whenever I visit forts, I don’t just see the structure — I try to understand the story behind it.
That’s what makes travel meaningful. Through Akshay Sharma AVS Holiday, I always help travelers explore places in a way that is:
  • Informative
  • Enjoyable
  • Memorable

Best Time to Visit Forts

Plan Smart
From my experience:
  • The best time is October to March.
  • Shun scorching summers (in Rajasthan, in particular)
  • Go in the morning or evening to have a better experience.
Safety must be the first consideration even in adventure.

Travel Tips
