Built on a cluster of granite hills, Chitradurga Fort literally means "picturesque fort". The fort was built in stages between 10th and 18th centuries AD by the dynastic rulers of the region. The fort is built in series of seven concentric fortification walls with various passages, a citadel, a masjid, warehouses for grains and oil, water reservoirs and ancient temples. The fort is favored location for film shooting.
