Amber Fort: A Story

We woke up today to a warm morning, the almost worst time to do sightseeing out in the sun, or so we thought. As we approached the fort, we saw that it was a very big fort, with walls a long ways away. When we entered, we all thought that it was going to be another boring old fort, but, as it turns out, we couldn’t have been farther from being wrong.

The fort is very old and it has lots of passage ways and chambers, making it easy to get lost. There are at least four levels and a very large area of rooms, stairs, tunnels, and courtyards. I commented a lot on how it would be an interesting place to play hide n seek. Inside, there was a room that had a large contraption that was supposed to bring water up from the lake below.

We had gotten audio guides, but they were very long and we skipped around a lot because of all the stairs and tunnels.
