The Formidable Gingee Fort
The Ginjee or Senji Fort, located in India, is one of the most impregnable fortresses of peninsular India. Its might and impenetrable nature have earned it the appellation of the “Troy of the East” from the English. This fort has imbibed within itself layers of history and has witnessed the rise and fall of successive empires. During its history, spanning over centuries, it has been under the possession of several political powers of note such as the Vijayanagar Nayaks, the Bijapuri Sultans, the Mughals, the Marathas, the French and the English, and served as a strategic stronghold for each one of them.
