Find here the photos of Devanahalli Fort and some of the photographs captured in the surroundings including the birthplace of Tipu Sultan. There are some photographs of children residing within the fort area. I have some photographs of monkeys who were having gala time. At the end of this post, you will find the photos of Royal Enfield Bullet RE350 silver colour with the fort as the background.

The beautiful town of Devanahalli is about 35 kms from Bangalore. Mallabairegowda built the Fort in Devanahalli in 1501. For an in-depth article about Devanahalli Fort, I would suggest Wikipedia.org to you.

Devanahalli Fort Entrance - Nov-2017 |
This is the fort entrance. What you see is only half of the fort structure. I could not cover the full view of the fort due to space constraint.

Inside view of the fort entrace |
This is the inside view of the fort entrance. The fort walls are on the either sides. However, the visitors can head towards the right to climb the fort.

Clear path on Devanahalli Fort |
It is a great experience to walk here. I could see few tourists with cameras. However, the footfalls seemed to be not impressive.
The Jumping Monkey

The Jumping Monkey |
The monkeys here are in abundance. Those you have monkey phobia should really avoid coming here or should accompany somebody to be in the safer side. Do not stare at the monkeys and avoid their attention.

view from inside the fort |
I took this photograph from the end of the fort. I liked the view of the house from within the stone frame. Did you get what I meant?

If you are residing in Bengaluru or anywhere nearby, a motorcycle ride to the Devanahalli fort will be an awful experience if everything goes well. If you are riding here, ensure great caution on the road as the highway is prone to accidents.
