Amber Fort

About 30 minutes by car from Jaipur city. As you drive along the mountain road, the fort walls suddenly appear. The overwhelming size and beauty take your breath away. This area has been inhabited by the Rajput tribe, who have practiced Hinduism since the 8th century. They incorporated cultures from various countries such as Persia and Turkey, creating a unique culture. Due to its strategic location where various ethnic groups interacted, they built strong fortresses in the hilly areas to prepare for invasions by foreign tribes. These fort walls are part of the six fortresses built during that era: Chittorgarh, Kumbhalgarh, Ranthambore, Gagron, Amber (Amer), and Jaisalmer. In 2013, they were registered as a UNESCO World Heritage Site under the name "Hill Forts of Rajasthan." Many people say it is more impressive than the Taj Mahal, but it might be better to consider it as something entirely different. It is also compared to the Great Wall of China in Beijing, but it is unique and incomparable. It is definitely worth a visit.
