Bhangarh Fort, Monument of National Importance in Alwar district, India.

The fort complex includes multiple gates, temples, and ruins of ancient residences spread across the slopes of the Aravali hills in Rajasthan.

Built in 1573 by Raja Bhagwant Das for his son Madho Singh, the fort housed over 9,000 residences until its population declined after 1720.

The fort contains the Gopinath Temple, raised on a 14-foot plinth, displaying detailed stone carvings that represent the Nagara architectural style.

The fort remains open to visitors during daylight hours, with access through unpaved roads located 235 kilometers from Delhi and 88 kilometers from Jaipur.

Local regulations prohibit entry to the fort premises after sunset, making it the only archaeological site in India with such time restrictions.
