High-res
Kumbalgarh is the most foreboding fort that I’ve visited thus far in India — which makes it that much more impressive that it was once conquered. It’s set about 80km north of Udaipur, on the top of a mountain overlooking nestled villages and hills below. From the very top, a scene of lush greenery dotted with the beige of Jain temples can be seen stretching out towards the horizon. Also fun: you can climb the ramparts, instead of the regular path, for a good part of the hike to the top!
