Chitradurga Fort

Reviewed By kaushalkayal - Bengaluru, India

An absolutely stunning fort - built over huge boulders that are reminiscent of the more famous Hampi. Both were once under the control of the Vijayanagar kings though this was built by the Nayakas ( a principality that broke off into an independent kingdom towards the end of the empire ) with notable additions made by Hyder Ali. Its strange that such an impressive & superbly maintained fort is not part of the usual tourist circuit...the monument has so many facets to it - the architecture of its temples, the unique topography that in itself is a photographer's delight & offers opportunities for the more adventuresome, inspiring folklore at every corner, stories of how an almost impregnable fort eventually fell to its enemies...if you can withstand the heat ( the mighty Mysore army did much more!! ), make the effort & explore this fort - time has provided us the opportunity to do at leisure what great kings once had to sacrifice entire armies for.

Chandravalli Caves

Reviewed By kallyashenoy

Must visit place. Go in groups, carry torch and take local guide to go inside the cave. It's very scary inside the cave, as there is no light and for the next 20 mins you have no connection with outside world. Without guides help you cannot simply come out of it. At some point of time, guide asks you to switch off all lights and you feel like why you went there !

Adumalleshwara Temple

Reviewed By sai24453 - Bengaluru, India

It is 5 kilometers Away from the fort. It is not just a Shiva temple, it also house a small zoo that shelters some big cats and other wild animals such as bear, crocodile, peacock, rabbits, etc. There is also a perennial stream that runs through the Nandi’s mouth, and opposite to the temple is a pond, home to rare fishes.
