Visit Ramnagar Fort situated just outside of Varanasi on the banks of the River Ganges. Built in 1750, the Mughal style fort continues to be the residence of the Maharaja of Benares. The fort is built in red sandstone and has two temples and a museum within the grounds. One of the temples is dedicated to the Hindu Saint Ved Vyasa, who wrote the great Indian epic, Mahabharata. Legend has it that Ved Vyasa stayed here for a brief period.

A rich heritage waiting for proper maintenance. This is a nice place to visit. Trip will cover fort and museum together. The fort has priceless collection of belongings of Princely State era and is worth seeing. Unfortunately, maintenance is very poor. Majority of items are covered in dust, detailed description of articles is grossly missing. We could not find the official guide too. Display of articles could me made attractive and well lit. Most rooms are dark. Humid smell of abandoned building is prominently experienced. Concerned authorities are requested to look into this matter, please.
