The Forts of Maharashtra might not be the first thing that comes to mind when you think of the places to visit in Maharashtra. The glitz and glamour of Mumbai or the beaches of Konkan seem far more appealing but you are mistaken. Caught in a tug of war for control between the British, Mughals and Marathas, the Deccan state is dotted with millions of people and vibrant local culture. Each city has a story to tell and boasts its own unique food, culture, and way of life. Each of them has its own chunk of history that tourists crave to discover, and the forts of Maharashtra are the live examples of these stories and Maharashtra’s legacy.
