The Rajasthan Fort Circuit

Six fortress cities connected by desert highway — from Jaipur's Amber Fort to Jaisalmer's living citadel. Each fort tells a different chapter of Rajput resistance, Mughal diplomacy, and desert survival. This is not a "top forts" list — it is a driveable route with a logical sequence, scored for every month.
