@@skelieeee7854 one ticket for everything would be a lot better value! And it’s possible to see it all in one day as well as the fort only takes 1 hour maximum. Thank you :)
@@sgvlogs3076 I enjoyed the other parts of Gwalior it was just the fort that wasn’t my favourite! But I would like to have more time to explore the town :)
Hmmm... Gwalior Fort is listed as one of India's top 3 forts (going by internet). India's best forts are in the state of Rajasthan built by the Rajputs, like the Mehrangarh Fort. I just read that forts were in vogue as a means of defense during medieval times.... but they became obsolete by 14th century after cannons arrived. The only way for enemy to capture a fort, during medieval times, was to shoot down tower guards by arrows, smash the gate by wooden rams or climb over the wall with tall ladders. But when cannons came, the fort walls could easily be blown away. So during later times, forts were built more to show power and wealth and less for defense. I think Europe, esp. Germany and UK, have the best and largest forts in the world.
@@nondajeevi5036 I didn’t know it was listed as one of the best! That surprises me because I’ve been to a lot of forts in India and this one is the worst I’ve seen in all honesty. That’s very interesting information though thanks for sharing!
@@Charlottemihell You're welcome. It gets more interesting.... Apparently, to keep up with the threat posed by cannons and gunpowder, military strategists thought of changing existing fort structures. They designed bastions with loopholes where soldiers could station and fire on anyone (like a cannoneer) who got too close to the fort walls, they changed round forts to other shapes like star-shape because rounds have dead-zones, they made sloping walls to permit engaging in traditional manual attack if others failed, etc. Manjarabad Fort (star-shaped fort) built by Tipu Sultan with the help of French engineers in 1792 and the Fort St. George in Madras are some examples of such new-age forts.... I just began looking this up, its new info for me also. Forts, Castles, Palaces.... interesting topic, more than meets the eye! Thanks for the video 👍.
great example of a very well maintained historic site. Thanks for showing us around. I would have tried to take a bat home as a pet. They should supply you with PPC protective clothing.
@@Charlottemihell Agreed that it would be smelling bad. But in the present conditions the bats and birds are the residents of the place and the visitors are guests. Its like humans want to take a walk in the jungle but want the tigers and lions out of there so that they will feel safe and comfortable.
Why haven't you visited Raja Mansingh Palace, that is the main thing to visit, there is a big maze inside where they have put a lock no one is allowed to go inside that ,you just visited wrong thing and there is small maze as well inside to enjoy and feel how thing works there
@@18Ram no I have never asked for a refund but I doubt they would do it anyway 😬 which is why it’s good to look if somewhere is worth visiting before paying to go in!
