Bangar Fort

Форт Бангар, Rajasthan, India

Description

Bangar Fort in Rajasthan, built in the second half of the XVI century by a powerful maharaja, also enjoys an ominous fame.

According to legend, the building was originally built in such a way that the shadow it cast during the day in the sunlight did not reach the house of Guru Balu Nath. However, after the death of the maharajah, his son completed the building up, and then his roof began to collapse. No restoration work helped, the roof still collapsed inside the building. They say the reason for this is a curse. Whose? Maybe the guru himself? Nobody knows that.

There is also a legend that the history of the fortress is connected with the magician Singhia and the princess Ratnavali, who rejected his love, who destroyed the sorcerer with the help of his own sorcery. Dying, the sorcerer cursed the princess, and at the same time this place itself. Now anyone who finds himself in the fortress at night can disappear forever. However, it may not disappear. This is who will be lucky.

Locals believe that many spirits live here and sooner or later there will be a reincarnation of Princess Ratnavali, who will be able to break the curse of the sorcerer.
