About Bahu Fort in Jammu

The history of Bahu Fort is as old as the history of the Jammu city. Bahu Fort, Jammu, is one of the most beautiful historical places situated on the banks of the Tawi river. The architectural style of the fort is influenced by Mughal architectural style. Sandstones and brinks are the backbones of this marvelous fort. The fort is also one of the most visited structures situated in Jammu district. It is situated at a distance of 4.1 km from the Jammu Tawi Railway and only 5 km away from the city center.

History of Bahu Fort

The history of Bahu Fort dates back to over 3000 years back when it was established by Raja Bahucholan. Later, renovations were made during the Dogra dynasty. The city is known to be named after the then king of the Dogra Dynasty, Raja Jambu Lochan. As per legends, Raja Jambu Lochan appeared at this place while hunting and got awe-struck by the beauty of the place. Years later, his brother Raja Bahucholan established the fort. The fort was rebuilt again in the year 1585. The present structure of the fort was built by Maharaja Gulab Singh.

Bahu Mela

Bahu Mela is one of the most vibrantly celebrated festivals in Jammu. Bahu Fort is the place where this festival is hosted. Best of all, it is celebrated twice in a year, i.e., during the months of March and April and September and October. Bahu Mela takes place during Navratri.

    Priyanka's 4 days trip to Jammu

    Overall experience was good. At Pehalgam we stayed at The Villagio as the one was chosen by us it was the best hotel. The hotel at Srinagar was Golden Sands which lacked good breakfast, dont forget to carry Shower gel, tooth brush etc. and warm clothes as they only provide a soap and Shampoo pouch a
    nd heater only from 7 to 10 and few hours in morning otherwise u have to manage with blankets. The driver Nasir was good in nature, apart from few hicups all was great and accomodating reporting to his boss every small thing .. our Tour guide Ms. Rida was always supportive, guiding us and always atttentive to our cause, even on sunday and one day where she needed to intensively communicate with transporter. We are satisfied with the response time and the services. However she did nt fulfill her promise of complimentary honeymoon package (Just a cake though) may be due to christmas eve. All together a good trip. thanks to travel triangle for the services. Gulmarg Gandola Shikara Ride, Dal Lake Snowful Betaab Valley Aru Valley Shankracharya Temple

    Rahul's 11 days trip to Jammu

    The trip was good and overall it was a pleasant experience. Except for the cab driver who was not cooperative and didn't inform us about the locations and the local cab pricing. The people in Kashmir are sweet-spoken but, they do charge exorbitantly for every service/product and, you need to be good
    enough to bargain as the price quotes were almost 10x more than reasonable. The RoadToTrip agent - Pankaj Giri was very helpful and available when needed but, contacting him at every location was not feasible. The hotel and cab arrangements were well-managed.
