Naggar Castle
Naggar Castle is the official seat of kings for centuries. Built by Raja Sidh Singh more than 500 years ago. [1]According to a legend, he used stones from the abandoned palace (Gardhak) of Rana Bhonsal to build the castle[2]. He ordered the labourers to form a human chain over the Beas river connecting its left and right banks to transfer the stones manually. The caste survived the earthquake of 1905. While most houses in the valley and the nearby city of Jawa were completely ruined, the castle's use of earthquake-proof techniques helped it sustain despite the calamity.
