Taragarh Fort or 'Star Fort' is the most impressive of structures of town of Bundi in Indian state of Rajasthan. A rather ramshackle fort, with its overgrown vegetation, It was constructed in 1354 upon a steep side. There are 3 gateways to the fort, well known as Hindu deity leader, Phuta Darwaza and Gagudi ki Phatak. Most parts of these spectaculargateways ar currently in ruins. During its period of time, Taragarh Fort was renowned for its tunnels crisscrossing the entire side. However, these tunnels are currently inaccessible for wish of correct maps. The largest of its battlements is that the 16th century bastion called the Bhim Burj, on which was once mounted a significantlymassive cannon referred to as Garbh Gunjam, or 'Thunder from the Womb'.This erstwhile Chauhan bastion has some huge water reservoirs. These reservoirs were built to store water and offerit to the residents throughout time of crisis. The reservoirs have been carved out of the rocky base of the fort. Rani Mahal is a little palace at intervals the fort complicated, built for the wives and concubines of rulers. The Mahal has, however lost most of its charm as the shine of its spectacular murals and glass windows have utterly light away. The fort also has Miran Saheb ki Dargah. He was the governor of the fort ANd laid down his life in an encounter.
