Chitradurga |
|
| |
Chitradurga,
on the highway linking Bangalore with Hospet, is famed
for its massive Kallina Kote (Palace of Stone) fort, a
marvel of military architecture made impregnable by the
Nayak Palegars.
Visitors to Chitradurga’s Kallina Kote cannot help
but be astounded by the sheer size of everything within
the Fort. Encircled by seven massive walls, each with
its independent gate, the fort has 19 gateways, 38 posterior
entrances, four of which are secret, granaries, oil pits,
water tanks, a palace and a mosque.
As if that was not enough, the approach to each gate is
uphill and through passages that twist and turn, thus
making it impossible to use elephants or battering rams
to break down the gates. Additionally every wall has pigeonholes
from where soldiers could rain down arrows on invaders.
