Mehrangarh rises nearly 130 metres above Jodhpur on a sheer sandstone escarpment, making it one of the largest and most imposing forts in India. Its ramparts offer sweeping views over the blue-washed old city below, and the palaces within contain an exceptional collection of palanquins, armour, and royal textiles. The fort's eastern face catches warm morning light that sets the honey-coloured stone aglow.
