Hey friend this is one of the most wonderful Sunday in my life. You know we always wait for this day because this day brings lot of fun. Besides every day we do our work & after work when we return home with tiredness then must be think about Sunday.
This Sunday is a memorable day in my life because this Sunday we means I & my friend sarvesh went raisen.
Ya I should describe about raisen. This is a district town in Madhya Pradesh. Besides this place is sarvesh s home town. Town of Raisen is 47 kms form Bhopal. This place is near Sanchi.
In raisen most beautiful place is raisen fort. Raisen Fort is huge and colorful hilltop fort built around 1200 A.D. The fort is about 800 years old. This ruined edifice is of great historical and architectural interest. The fort consists of temples, cannons, three palaces, 40 wells and a large tank. You may hike to the fort and explore the magnificent historical monument.
This is definitely the most interesting place I have visited. As is the case with so many monuments out here, this is not maintained properly.The interesting thing about this place though is that there is a mosque and a temple built on the same complex. It is also believed that this place had schools. The main complex had many huge domes. Only two of them stand today though. You can hear bats inside if you stand at the door of these two rooms where the domes are intact.At the main area of the fort, all the rooms open into a common central pool. The place must have been something to look at 800 years ago. Today it stands like another neglected monument despite the board put up at the entrance which says "Monument of National Importance".
One of the posts at the entrance of the fort. The fort offers some really good look out points. The whole city of Raisen is visible from here. Since such posts were built at all points on the hill, no matter which direction the enemy came from, they could always know about it well in advance.
