Kuchaman
Fort (Rajasthan, India) now a heritage hotel
resort is easily accessible from Delhi and Jaipur.The Fort's formidable ramparts,
innumerable terraces, balconies, and viewing points alongwith its rich and interesting
history, makes it a great holiday destination with a difference ! The
views are spectacular since the hotel rises some 1000 feet from the entrance with
several levels. The view at night of the lit-up city and the Aravalli hills and
Sambar lake in the distance is enchanting. The
Kuchamani folk artists and crafts persons have stalls in the Meena Bazaar, within
the fort complex, selling exquisitely made handicrafts. The fort also houses a
museum of weapons and armour. A major part of the collection is in gold or silver
with floral and geometrical motifs. The hall of the palace houses the beautiful
miniature paintings, murals and gilded work. Accessibility
