Murud-Janjira is the local name of a famous fort and tourist place situated on an island just off the coastal village of Murud, in the #Raigad district of #Maharashtra, India.  Raja Ram Rao Patil was Koli Patil of #JanjiraIsland who established and/or built this island in the 16th century for kolis to live peacefully away from pirates. After gaining permission from the Sultan of the Ahmadnagar Sultanate, he built the island but later refused to obey the orders of the Sultan. So the Sultan sent his Admiral Piram Khan to capture the janjira. Due to the castle's fortifications, Piram Khan was unable to attack the island conventionally, so he disguised himself as a merchant and requested to stay a night at janjira and permission was granted. Piram Khan hosted a party under the guise of thanking the patil. When the Patil and kolis were intoxicated, Piram Khan attacked them with his men who had been hidden in barrels and captured the island. #JanjiraFort is situated on an oval-shaped rock off the Arabian Sea coast near the port town of Murud, 165 km south of Mumbai. Janjira is considered one of the strongest #MarineForts in India. The fort is approached by sailboats from Rajapuri jetty. The main gate of the fort faces Rajapuri on the shore and can be seen only when one is about 40 feet away from it. It has a small postern gate towards the open sea for escape. https://www.instagram.com/p/B7hQhm5h103/?igshid=2470l4eubqk5

Even when you go this close to the Fort, you can't see the Fort's entrance! It's well hidden inside two bastions. This was one of the reasons this Fort remained impregnable. By the time the enemy ships discovered the entrance, the cannons on the Fort used to do their job. #fort #seafort #janjira #janjirafort #murudjanjirafort #impregnable #bastions #konkan #maharashtra #india (at Janjira Fort) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bp1ZbWoAdoy/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=a6mnuwqspp59
