The Views from the above are breathtaking, One of the rarest constructions of Palaces you can See here, the fort itself is an art.
Very nice palace and beautiful paintings. The guards a very helpful and open the different rooms for you to see the paintings.
On the other hand…very disappointed that I could not access the fort…the way to the fort is full of big and agressive monkeys…even the guards are telling you to be careful. Something should be done regarding the monkeys because at the end you cannot do the full visit.
Stunning location, with the palace built into the hillside. Some beautiful wall paintings to see.
The fort was built in around 1600 AD. It's life has almost expired and big renovation works are required to save this.
If you are looking for a haunted place but you can’t go to bhangarh in jaipur this place is a hell yaa to your desire to go to a haunted place only suggestion don’t go in evening go to atleast 1 pm to explore all hills and forts and carry abundant water as there is no water source inside
Entrance:
There is a steep walk to reach the main entrance. Its advisable to take water bottle from the ticketing window as you wont find anything to drink or eat once inside the fort.
View:
The top of the fort gives a panoramic view of the Bundi town.
Inside:
Its more of a fort than a palace. A small portion of this monument is preserved while the rest is mostly in ruins. When we visited, it was being renovated. There is one garden in the entrance which is well maintained.
Terrace:
Terrace is a must visit to soak in the sun in winters. Here is where you can see the entire town and a nearby lake.
Beware of monkeys and also honey bees as they build combs frequently.
Staff:
The staff is quite helpful and cautious and will help you with directions.
All in all - must visit if you are in Bundi.

As such Bundi is a small and dirty place but it has a gem in the form of Garh Palace. There is a entry ticket as almost all of it is still owned by Royals of Bundi. There is a small free parking near the entrance but you may find a irritating and rude woman claiming to be parking attendant. Beware of her, she is a fraud. There are strange rules as one can use mobile to take pictures and make videos but one cannot use selfie stick. Inside Garh Palace there are different palaces constructed by different kings. All worth visiting like Badal Mahal. King's throne made of marble is unique and amazing. There is also Chitralekha with beautiful garden, shivling and a gallery of Bundi's paintings. Chitralekha is maintained by Archeological Survey of India and paintings are stunningly beautiful. Also inside Garh Palace is the Bundi fort. The fort covers the whole of the hills which surround Bundi. Inside the fort one has to be very careful as wild monkeys are there and they do attack. Go in big groups and carry sturdy sticks. I loved Garh Palace, if you are unfortunate to be in Bundi due to some bad luck, you can still visit Garh Palace to redeem bad luck.
The garh palace🏯 is such a beautiful and magical place, even with the loss of all the glory today. The main entrance and the 'Diwan-e-aam' have some intricate carvings. The 'chitrashala' that is the painting👩🏻🎨 school has some beautiful frescos depicting different scenarios from the hindu mythology as well as from the history of the kingdom of Bundi. You won't see hordes of tourists here, which makes the place look quite spooky. It is so unfortunate that such a gem is left in the ruins,due to no maintenance whatsoever...

Breath taking view from top of the Fort. But nowadays top location is closed due to some dispute. It is a private property. It is not government undertaking. Entry fee is Rs 80 fir Indians. Very calm &, Silent location. Good for pre wedding shoot. Foreigners are keen to view this Fort. Main attraction is paintings inside the Fort. Paintings represent medieval art of India.
This Fort is surrounded by many roof top restaurants, cafes and hotels.
Not less than 5 stars on cultural front but yes there are restoration is going on and will come out with some good results
We went there around 5pm and we were able to visit the palace without none around. To help us to visit all the rooms they opened secret passages only for us since the time was not enough to go through the standard way. We were not able to do the fort but we skipped it anyway. Allow more than 2 hours if you want to do both. Now the ticket is 500 rupies for both palace and fort, you cannot split anymore.
Entrance fee is 80 per person one of the highest for a ASI managed fort.
The fort is interesting with many levels and it is quite steep.Theere is a hall with pillars with rooms and also a smaller hall with carved pillars and elephants made of stone and wood. On the second level there are murals which are fading. Overall great place for about one hr.
Palace opened for tourists consists Chatra Mahal,Badal Mahal, Phool Mahal,Sinhasan and Ratan Daulat,Hathi Pol, Chitrashaala.Managment deserve compliment for preserving our heritage. Paintings on walls and ceilings are awesome. From Dudha Mahal one can have beautiful view of Bundi city and of Nawal Sagar
Awesome place, a must visit for every Indian as we are only taught about mughals and their monuments are only promoted till now bit not about Hindu rulers, their dynasty and their monuments.
It is time to know about real India and their culture and that is incomplete without visits to such places.
For all true Indians know your heritage know your culture come to Rajasthan once.

Taragarh Fort is gigantic architecture nestled in Bundi district. Also known as Star Fort, it was constructed in the 16th century. Inside the ramparts are huge reservoirs carved out of solid rock, and the Bhim Burj on which famous cannon is constructed. Built at an elevation of 1,426-foot, it houses a highly regarded painting gallery from where the Bundi style of mural painting was originated.
P.s. the fort track is very steep and very difficult and that not worth at all. So only visit garh mahal and thats it.
