The fort also served as refuge to the baby king Udai of Mewar. It is also of sentimental significance as it is the birthplace of Mewar's legendary King Maharana Pratap.
The fort is self-contained and has within its amalgam almost everything to withstand a long siege. The fort fell only once, that was to the combined armies of Mughal and of Amber for scarcity of drinking water. There are many magnificent palaces and an array of temples built by the Mauryas, of which the most picturesque palace is the Badal Mahal or the palace of the clouds.
