Fort Mangad, Mountain fort in Raigad district, India.
The stone fortress sits at an elevation of 770 feet, featuring multiple water tanks carved into rocks and two entrance gates with stone walls.
Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj constructed this fort as part of a defensive chain to protect Raigad Fort, which served as the capital of Swarajya.
A temple dedicated to Goddess Vinjhai stands on the plateau before the fort entrance, displaying traditional cow mouth style architecture.
Visitors can reach the fort via a 45-minute trek from Mashidwadi village, with regular buses connecting Mumbai to nearby Mangaon throughout the day.
The cave within the fort accommodates 50 people and includes storage areas that were used to preserve food supplies during military operations.
