Channur Khalsa, Karnataka, India

Wishlist
Share

The Vanadurga Fort was initially constructed as a station for a small unit of the royal army. It served as the outpost for the territory under the rule of the Nayaka dynasty. The fort was given the name Vanadurga as it was surrounded by dense forest at that time. As vana means forest and durga means fort in the local language, the fort was named thus. But with time the forest surrounding the fort started to diminish. Today the fort is no longer surrounded by a forest. Instead, the fort stands surrounded by agricultural fields.
