Hide and Seek in Kumbhalgarh

Hide and seek 

in Kumbhalgarh

Roads have carried millions of people on it and experienced every traveler's experience over time between arrival and departure stations with the notion of feeling for awaited destination. When the clock ticks on, on any jaunt what matters is the happiness felt during it, with the sky and road being the only attendant of each incredible trail. Also, holding on to person's iterated thought that keeps on reappearing in mind, he perceives varied contexts that fits into him giving an enduring episodes of the voyage. 

It was when the car was getting nearer to the huge stone structure hidden on the top of hills of Aravalli my eyes were gazing out of  window pane waiting for the entire royal marvel to appear in front of me. Gradually one mountain peak and then one bastion and so on, started reveling its own beauty . At a glance, the view was somber silhouette of those bastion. But then when we slowly ascended towards the heights what was the whole composition  presented was the defensive and royal bestowal of Rajputs, the never declined supremacy of Bharat.  Bastions continued to very much longer distance in the range of mountain cutting it through the valleys and peaks. If I was directly presented to this destination i would have never understood the meaning of "worth a wait". 

Architecture of the place describes about the prospects of man who built it. Not only The road actually leads one to entry with lots of excitement but also each niche of it was the masterpiece created intricately showing dedication of  craftsmen and the ordering leader.
My very first encounter with the grand doorway left me surprised. It had pointed long cylindrical nails punched on the face of door not letting any invader to dare enter in the vicinity of the fort.  Every part of the fort was so in rhythm with each other. Proportions were with the god created hills  and opening itself to the rising or setting sun. The peaceful climbing of the stairs and walking on one of the longest walls ever created by Rajputs gave the feeling of power and their strength. And no home can ever be built without establishing deity first, so, Mahadev and Jain temple converted the fort into sacred proximity.  

While I was returning from the house of Royals It was almost dark, Sun had disappeared. The perfect canvas of Sky with hues of blue and oranges with base of dark green mountain ranges was being painted in my mind and  as I was wandering how this nature, inspired man to create such a great marvel that I just left behind. I was immediately answered by thee. A total dark blue side of the sky, mountains covered with darker shade, a white light gently spreaded above them. I waited for a second and an immense white, glimpse of  light, as if peeping from behind the mountains appeared. Before I could accept the beauty that was present in front of me it just disappeared behind cliffs. Sat with eagerness to discover what that was, I just moved the curtain more aside to not miss a chance and there was a giant globe of moon behind the black silhouette of hills. At this moment I felt in heart about how dawn and dusk importantly played role in making our days more and more alluring.

So, every surprise I got in the complex of the fort was so much the result of the inspiration from nature. Deliberately, if any thing is acknowledged, yes, the prominence to know what and how was it created increases and the end product actually comes out to be more than expected.
