“The fort is crowded on weekends and holidays. Suggest you go here on a weekday to experience its eerie aura,” says HolidayIQ Traveller Shivam Gupta.
If you have nerves of steel, take a peek into The Bhangarh Fort. It is recognised as the ‘most haunted place’ by the Government of India. A board has been put up by the Archeological Survey of India on the fort gate that prohibits tourists from entering the fort area after sunset and before sunrise. In 1613 AD, Bhangarh Fort was built by Raja Madhu Singh.
