Ramnagar Fort, Varanasi Overview
Located on the Eastern banks of River Ganga, opposite to Tulsi Ghat, Ramnagar Fort is a stunning historical monument in Varanasi. It was built by Raja Balwant Singh in 1750 according to the Mughal style of architecture. Even though the system of Kings was abolished in the region, the current Maharaja, Pelu Bhiru Singh, resides in the Fort. It reflects a blend of Mughal and Indian architectural styles, featuring ornate structures and intricate carvings.
The fort encompasses several noteworthy structures, including the Durbar Hall, Saraswati Bhawan, and a museum housing vintage cars, royal costumes, and antique artifacts. The Durbar Hall, adorned with vivid frescoes and a marble balcony, once hosted royal assemblies. The museum offers a glimpse into the opulent lifestyle of the Banaras royalty, displaying artifacts from different eras.
