Vijayanagar Fort, Thanjavur Overview

Vijayanagar Fort is a fort built by the Nayaks and partly by Maratha rulers in the early 1550s. It is a popular tourist spot, located close to the Brihadeeswara Temple.

The fort houses a Tanjore Palace, Sangeetha Mahal, Library and an exquisite art gallery that includes many sculptures and paintings. The Shiva Ganga Gardens are also a part of the complex. Though the fort is mostly in ruins, it still echoes its strength and grandeur it must have once possessed.
