Forts aren't my thing. It seems like every city in India has a fort to see. There's a nice view from the top, but we didn't go inside to check it out.

Jhansi Fort is very near to Elite Circle,, Very Nominal Fees for entry i.e 5 INR.. Its a nice place for roaming around.. But some place like stares and some cabins or rooms used to smell. Everything is good but Govt have to more take care of this historical beautiful place.

Tying to imagine the British red coats charging up hill and storming the fort with those huge Krupp cannons firing down on to the soldiers, must have been a slaughter for the attackers, bu the Rani escaped!

I had always wanted to visit this fort as I had read about the heroic deeds of a young queen - Laxmbi Bai. Therefore, I was not disappointed to visit this fort. If you are keen on history and you know the importance of this fort, you will love this place. Although, the maintenance can be better.

The Jhansi Fort reminds us the valour and courage of the Great Queen Laxmibai who fought bravely at a tender age of 22/23 and became a martyr in her prime youth. The fort is open from sunrise to sunset and the entry fee is Rs 5 for Indians. The sound & light show narrates the life of Rani. We visited... More

It's the historic importace of the this fort that puts it on the tourist map, thats it. Architecture wise, nothing much.
