Tours to Gwalior Fort, Madhya Pradesh

Most travellers who pause in Gwalior tend to do so in order to admire the façade of the city’s awesome hilltop fortress, plastered in Persian-style ceramic tiles. But climb the winding walkway to its inner confines, where an old palace houses a small museum, and you’ll be treated to a glimpse of an exquisite salabhanjika, a finely sculpted fertility nymph whose enigmatic smile and sensuous curves have earned her the nickname of ‘India’s Mona Lisa’.
