Chitradurga Fort

Chitradurga, Karnataka, India

4.6 (0)

Overview

The 'stone fortress' of seven concentric walls coiling through granite hills — 18 temples, oil-pit defences and the legend of Obavva who fought with a pestle.

Why visit: Karnataka's greatest fort landscape — part citadel, part boulder wilderness.

History: Nayaka palegar stronghold; guard's wife Onake Obavva killed Hyder Ali's infiltrators one by one at a crevice.
