Garh Panchkot, Ancient fort in Purulia, India.
Located at the foothills of Panchet Hills, the fort complex contains multiple stone structures, temples, and defensive walls spreading across the landscape.
The Singh Deo dynasty constructed this military fortification in the 16th century until Maratha cavalry forces destroyed it during the 18th century.
Multiple terracotta temples within the complex display regional architectural styles, including Pancharatna, Jor-Bangla, and Pirha designs.
Visitors can reach the fort through roads connecting to Purulia, with several accommodation options available at Garh Panchkot Tent House and WBFDC Nature Resort.
The fort overlooks Panchet Lake, where remnants of the submerged ancient city of Telkupi emerge from the waters during certain seasons.
