Kumbhalgarh is named after Mewar king Rana Kumbha, who built it from 1443 to 1458. During his reign, the king focused on fort planning and architecture. He and his architect, Mandan, are acclaimed for experimenting with and perfecting medieval Rajput fort design, adding many new innovations. Apparently, Rana Kumbha constructed or restored 32 forts, quite an achievement! This included strengthening the walls of Chittorgarh Fort. The 15th century Kumbhalgarh Fort in Rajasthan is one of the popular desert state's lesser-known historical masterpieces. Yet, it's of extraordinary significance. You may be surprised to discover that the mammoth wall of this UNESCO World Heritage Site is the second longest continuous wall in the world (after the iconic Great Wall of China), earning it the title of "Great Wall of India". What's not surprising is that Mughal invaders found it impossible to penetrate the fort.
