Alamparai fort was built by the Mugals in 1700s.Later on captured and destroyed by the British. The fort right now under the Tamil Nadu govt is in ruined state. One get a feeling of time stopping here. Nice place for afternoon nap. Ancient trade hub. I was the only person present at the fort.
Nice historical place. Ruined forts, can be maintained well and make tourist attractions.
This area has no fort left only some of the walls left of the fort and some of the small structures available. But view wise it's good to take photos because it's available on the side of the sea. Only u can take photos there this is not a specific tourist spot. No shops and snakes are available nearby as a picnic spot u can choose.
Wonderful and sobering reminder of our history. The ruins of Alamparai Fort are not much to see, but what is there has stood the rest of time. There is evidence that some restoration has been attempted but too little too late. The red brick walls stand in stark contrast to the sky and sea. Would be good to have some dustbins and cleaning done on the site, remove the trees and plants growing between the cracks of the existing structures. Has potential to be developed as a pleasant historical picnic spot for families.
This is a very old fort, the roads to this fort go through Village, going here for Sun rise is the best.! You can visit this place to take photographs and enjoy sunrise and sunset, I would prefer you not to stay here late at night as it feels like a haunted place.
No entry fees nor anyone is there to take care of the fort. Literally nothing to see except the view to the sea. You can see trash lying inside. Beware of going for bath in the water backside, also taking boat rides offered by the locals for money. I don't think they are operating with the proper paperwork from the TN government.
Ruins of Alamparai Fort by the sea. Deserted place, better visit in a group rather than alone. Easily accessible from ECR, the Google maps will take you directly inside the fort.
Nice experience Wonder view Exciting places Sea foods available Local fresh season fruits Tasty Local foods Boat rides
