We took a train from Agra on Sunday at 8 am and reached Gwalior around 9:30 am. Then decided to explore the city through google and locals. So we started with the Gwalior Fort which is a huge sight from outside. The tourists are taken from the other route of the fort that has Jain gods carved in the rocks. The main front door is on other side and is good for ones coming on foot. What all we saw was the various divisions of Mughal and Hindu rulers in the fort, the Man Mandir, the private den of Scindia's and Rani Laxmi bai, the Johar kund, the temples inside the main fort and outside in the campus. Then we heeded to the Jai Vilas Palace. Only the museum part is available to see which showcases all the luxury creations of artists around the world that Maharaja Jiwaji Rao Scindia loved to collect and the grandeurs of the famous Darbar Hall. Then we had lunch and heeded to the Sun Temple. Since the tourist spots close at 4 pm, the last one we could visit for the day was the Tomb of Tansen which also includes the shrine of his teacher Mohammad Ghaus. We came back the same day so did not stay in any hotel for the night. OYO hotels are available for the night stay and other cheap options are also there. Otherwise there is Radisson, Country Inn for luxury stays.
