Why to visit Rasalgad Fort
A well-known fort in Ratnagiri is Rasalgadh Fort. The fort's pinnacle offers a flawless view of the sky because it was built in 1770. The fort, which is 15 miles from Khed, is in decent shape.
Rasalwadi, a settlement in the foothills, serves as the starting point for the walk, and it is from there that you will ascend the hill in one of the easiest ways you will experience for some time.
Twenty minutes from the village, the fort is easily accessible. When you arrive, you are greeted by two enormous doors that lead both into the fort and the ruins of a long-gone empire.
A little shrine dedicated to Lord Hanuman welcomes you as you enter the first door. The second door, which serves as the fort's last entrance, is located beyond this temple. The fort features 16 superb cannons, all of which show the power of the soldiers that defended the fort.
