The Uperkot fort
Located on the eastern part of the city the first was established at the foothills of Girnar over 2300 years ago. The majestic huge walls which range around 20m high and the architectural style used during the Maurya Empire is something appreciated to date. The fort is situated in between the full lush greenery which attracts many travellers and the deep wells present here are also surprisingly to be 300 ft. deep. It is said that it was filled crocodiles back in the days when the king ruled the region for the protection of the fort and although the fort looks very ancient its structure is amazingly maintained.
