The fort has several historical palaces, gates, a temple and two prominent commemorative towers. Alauddin Khilji was the first to raid Chittor in 1303 A.D. Legend has it that the regal beauty of Padmini so besotted Alauddin Khilji, he was overpowered by a desire to possess her. But the noble queen preferred death over dishonour & committed "Jauhar".
