Ramnagar Fort, located in Ramnagar near Varanasi, India, is a stunning example of Mughal-style architecture. Constructed in the 18th century by Kashi Naresh Raja Balwant Singh, the fort is built with creamy-colored Chunar sandstone. It houses the Veda Vyasa Temple, the temple of Dakshin Mukhi Hanuman, and a museum that displays a fascinating collection of vintage automobiles, medieval costumes, and a rich array of weaponry. The fort stands on the eastern bank of the Ganges River and serves as the residence of the Maharaja of Varanasi.
