Overview Attractions Map How to reach Weather Q & A Hotels More
An alluring monument that radiates the charm and aura of medieval times, Bhadra fort and its surroundings are the most scenic locations in the city. Built by Sha Alam in the year 1411, this fort got its name from the Bhadrakali temple it houses. Nested in the midst of lush greenery that amounts to 44 acres, the fort depicts the history and life of Alam Sha and his family. Intricate carvings, lattice works and lovely frescos suits to the serene ambiance pretty well.

The most fabulous edifice in the fort is the lovely arches in the entry gate, which shows some inscriptions regarding the history of the fort. Today’s fort is a hub of several governmental activities where some of the important offices like ASI, post office etc are functioning. It also holds a lovely mosque in the name of Siddi Sayed.
