Haveli
Man Singh
|
This is not an original
structure of the fort. It was built by a general of Akbar, Raja Man Singh
I of Amber. He died in 1614 so it must have been built between 1550 and
1614. It is a 2 storey building constructed with bricks and plastered
neatly. Architecturally it bears no resemblance to the Qila Rohtas. A part
of the structure has fallen away. There seems to have been 4 rooms out of
which only one exists now. |
 |
The existing room is 5.5
meters square and there are balconies on the outside of it. These
balconies are similar to the one outside Sohail Gate. One could see the
whole fort from these balconies.
Unlike Qila Rohtas which
is an example of Afghan architecture, this Haveli is an example of pure
Hindu architecture.
