All the city of Rajasthan are famous for its forts and havelies. I think only kings from Rajasthan were interested in building forts not others
ReplyDeleteRajasthan is indeed famous for its forts and havelis, but its not true that no one else built forts. there are forts all over India, some even more beautiful than those in Rajasthan.
