There is an interesting story behind the construction of the most prominent fort of Rewa. According to the folklore, construction of the fort was first started by Salim Shah, the son of Sher Shah Suri but was left incomplete. Later on, when Maharaja Vikramaditya arrived Rewa, he decided to take up the work of completing the construction of Rewa fort.
It was finally finished by him and King Bhav Singh Ju Deo installed the Mahamrityunjaya Temple inside the fort. Out of all the primitive forts of Madhya Pradesh, Rewa fort is the finest architecture you will notice on your visit. The main highlight of this Fort’s glory today is that it provides accommodation to the visitors at a very cost-effective price.
