Ahilya Devi Maheshwar Fort

Very beautiful and historical place at bank of Narmada River...
Fort architecture is simply superb...
Good place for photography...
Our Boat Ride experience was also awesome...
Maheshwar fort is not much popular but very good and calm place to visit...
Sitting at Narmada riverghat gives memorable experience....

Must visit , The architecture is really worth watching , You can also swim because water is clean most of the time and there are lot of fishes you can feed over there or just simply sit near ghat and enjoy your own company.. worth visiting!

I went to Maheshwar fort on an office trip. I believe it's a good place to hangout at with a group of people or friends or family. It's old and rustic , an architectural beauty. it was a little untidy but not too much.
Just a word of advice whenever you visit Maheshwar fort, visit during winter because it gets really humid here and it gets harder to climb the stairs and wander the whole fort . Take a good amount of water with you if you go during the summers.

This place has so much historical and cultural importance when it comes to the history of Indore. It has been built by Ahilyabai Holkar. She is renowned for many great things she did for the empire over her tenure. The fort has immaculate architecture and great views ar sunsets. Must visit here in the golden hours. Serene views of the river and sunset. The monument also makes you think how was this structure built so beautiful and still standing.

An ancient historic place, Maharani Ahilya Bai Holkar fort. The fort is located on the banks of River Narmada. The holistic view of the palace with its beautiful architecture is eye-catching. Also the serene place where the Maharani used to worship the god is worth visiting including the gold swing.

Pure beauty and exceptional architecture around 90 km from Indore.
A must visit place to experience ancient architecture and beautiful Narmada river.

If you are cleanliness friendly, don't expect too much. Ghats are a bit dirty.

Maheshwar Fort is known and visited for Devi AhilyaBai Holkar.
It's very tough to explain much about this place but some hints are here for you.
The architecture on the walls of fort is very nice.
There are many Shivlings on the ghat as well as in the fort too because Devi Ahilya Bai holkar Ji was a big devotee of Bholenath.
There you can also take experience of boating.
It is built on the bank of the Narmada River and has ghat where many devotees visit to take bath in Narmada Ji.
We should visit this place atleast once and get to know about the history and sacred deed of Devi ahilyabai holkar.

The fort is very Beautiful and the scenery of river Narmada is just a eye catching and so satisfying. 3 star because no proper Identification on road to indicate the way for fort and temple also need more cleanses and maintenance in the fort. Hope so MP tourism will do that.
