The fort presides like a grand old lady over the city/town of Gwalior. Man Mandir is stunning, and a local guide (who charged a quaint fee of Rupees 611) had excellent stories to tell. Avoid the sound & light show, just take a guide for your visit!

Ok, so if you are in city and have gone to Fort, you would get tickets to visit this place. The actual name of this is Sahastrabahu temple. Made by king to please both his wife and mother. Apart of the building there is nothing left there. All the idols have been destroyed and even the face of God on the wall have been broken, The only left what you see if the remainings. How beautiful this place would have been, can only be imagined. Remember there are no idols and hence this is no more a temple. No prayers or offerings are done here.

A late afternoon visit to Tigra was an awesome experience. Calm environment, nice landscape, water full of Crocs. Yes. Crocodiles. This place has boating options. Shorter trips to long distance motor boat ride. We opted for the full tour in motor boat. We went to the far reaches and the experience was breathtaking. We could see plenty of crocodiles in their natural habitat. We easily saw 15-16 crocodiles. The place also has a historical story behind it as well. Overall, had an amazing time. Definitely recommended.
