Nizamabad Fort
Nizamabad Fort is one of the most famous forts in the city that is a blend of power, elegance and architectural brilliance. Rashtraputha rulers constructed the fort during the 10th century. Located on top of a hill at an altitude of about 300 meters, the fort has been ruled by various dynasties and it has undergone modifications periodically. The temple of Rama in the fort was built by Chatrapathi Shivaji, the famous Marathi ruler. The huge corridors, mundaps and the mahamundaps in the temple are awe-inspiring. Influences of Jain dynasty are seen in some ancient artifacts.
