Ramnagar Fort

Ramnagar Fort

Ramnagar Fort, Ramnagar Fort travel, Ramnagar Fort tourism, Ramnagar Fort Historical Place, travel to Ramnagar FortThis 17th century fort which is 16 km from railway station and situated across the Ganges, is the palace of the former Maharaja of Benares. Of special interest here are the Durbar Hall (public audience room) and museum which houses an antique collection of palanquins, elephant saddles, arms, costumes, etc

It looks most impressive from the river, though the decrepit planking of the pantone bridge you cross to reach it is somewhat of a distraction.

During the mansoon access is by ferry. The interesting museum here contains old silver & brocade palanquins for the ladies of the court, gold-plated elephant howdahs, an astrological clock, marcabre elephant traps and an armoury of swords and old guns.

The festival of Dussehra celebrated here is an interesting spectacle. The fort is open from 9 am to noon and 2 to 5 pm.
