\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tMaheshwar is situated on the banks of the river Narmada in Khargone district of Madhya Pradesh which has been mentioned in the epics of Ramayana & Mahabharata.

1. MAHESHWAR FORT<\/h2>\nThe 16th century stronghold is well known for its exquisite engineering and tremendous view from the Narmada River. The massive Maheshwar Fort stands on a hill overlooking the Narmada on the South and Maheshwar town to the North. This place was developed by a biggest ruler Ahilya Bai Holkar and it was her private palace. This ancient monument also consists of temples dedicated to several incarnations of Lord Shiva. Many historians argue regarding the construction of this Fort which could have been done by a local ruler Subhandhu, some scholars conjecture that it was built as early as the Mauryan period. History states that the Holkar ruler, Malhar Rao captured the Fort in 1733.  <\/span>When his daughter-in-law, Ahilya Bhai Holkar ascended the throne, we see the Fort as it stands today which has 5 gates, of which two are used by the locals at present. Currently the Fort is a Heritage Hotel (See Hotels & Accommodation in Omkareshwar & Maheshwar) and is maintained by the last Maharaja of Indore, Prince Shivaji Rao Holkar.  <\/span>The Fort is also used as a popular location for shooting many movies like Asoka, Bajirao Mastani and the famous song \u2019Snehithane Snehithane\u2019 from Alaipayuthey was filmed here as well. <\/span>\n\n
