Perched on a highly wooded hill is a wonderful fort with huge water tanks that once delivered water to the palace. This large water tanks in the fort provided the palace the water especially during the time of wars. Taragarh Fort of Bundi still contains three water tanks, dug into the rock and designed to withstand long periods of sieges. Thanks to the ingenious method with which they were built, they have never dried up. This massive fort is also known as the Star Fort. The Taragarh Fort houses a giant cannon called Garbh Gunjam.
