Built
of soft-yellow sandstone, the fort is the principal structure in the
city. It was constructed at the site of what was once the watering hole
and resting-place on the Indo-Persian trade route. Built by Rawal Jaisal,
in the 12th century this fort is architecturally unique to India, with
its labyrinthine interiors.
