Gwalior Fort
-------------
Standing on a steep mass of sandstone Gwalior Fort dominates the city and is its most significant monument. It has been the scene of momentous events imprisonment battles and jauhars. A steep road winds upwards to the fort flanked by statues of the Jain tirthankaras carved into the rock face. The magnificent outer walls of the fort still stand two miles in length and 35 feet high bearing witness to its reputation for being one of the most invincible forts of India. This imposing structure inspired Emperor Babur to describe it as the pearl amongst the fortresses of Hind Within the fort are some marvels of medieval architecture. The 15th century Gujari Mahal is a monument to the love of Raja Mansingh Tomar for his intrepid Gujar Queen Mrignayani. The outer structure of Gujari Mahal has survived in an almost total state of preservation the interior has been converted into Archaeological Museum housing rare antiquities some of them dating back to the 1st century A.D. Even though many of these have been defaced by the iconoclastic Mughals their perfection of form has survived the ravages of time. Particularly worth seeing is the statue of Shalbhanjika from Gyraspur the tree goddess the epitome of perfection in miniature . The statue is kept in the custody of the museum’s curator and can be seen on request.
