The 16th
century Bassi Fort, 25 km from Chittorgarh is set amidst
the hills of the Vindhyachal ranges. The ornate gates,
domes, arches and corridors of the palace recall the
grandeur of another era when valour, honour as well as
ostentation were understood precepts of royalty. The
fort has been painstakingly restored, maintaining the
integrity of the original structure while subtly
introduce the trappings of modern comfort. 5
km from the Fort is the Bassi Wildlife Sanctuary with
its gentle slopes and large water bodies where panther,
wild boar, antelopes and mongoose can be sighted. |
