About 280 km from Jhansi, close to Banda, the ancient Fort of Kalinjar had strategic importance during medieval times. The Kalinjar Fort, situated at a height of 700 ft, is a veritable historical treasure house. The picturesque Vindhya ranges give it a charm which will linger in your memory for a long time. The Neelkanth Temple, legend says, is built at the spot where Lord Shiva, after consuming poison that emerged from the churning of ocean, came to rest for some time.
