Indian Palaces II: Gwalior, Rajasthan

The site of Gwalior has been fortified since the 8th century, but this amazing fort was built by Man Singh in the early 1500s.

The Hathi Pol, or Elephant Gate.

Surely this is one the world's most beautiful curtain walls.

A remarkable Hindu temple on the interior.
