Udayin Fort, Kaushambi - Tourist attraction in Kosam Inam Kachhar - Kaushambi, India

I visited this place because it was once the capital of the great Vatsa Kingdom. The history of the place dates back to the pre-evangelical Buddhism era. There are three places to visit, and among them, I liked the ruins of forts on jamna shores

This place is historical place but not tourism. those people goes their who loves the historical place. And there is only some remains partical of the fort.

Prayagraj, JNN. The fort of Maharaja Udayan in Kaushambi has taken care of the heritage of Kaushambi district. If we dig into the history, it is known that the present Kaushambi Vatsa used to be the kingdom of Maharaja Udayan. The existence of the fort of Maharaja Udayan is still preserved with the help of a bastion. Built on the banks of the river Yamuna, this bastion of the love of Maharaja Udayan and Vasavadatta is the center of attraction for the people. Tourists coming from India and abroad see the existence of this fort and get an idea of the splendor of the capital of Vatsa state. Kaushambi is 40 km from the district headquarter.

Nice historical place.. capital off the King Udayan

Hasn't much thing to explore, be aware about route. Road isnt in good condition.

The present Kaushambi district was carved out of Allahabad district on 4th April 1997. The District Headquarter, Manjhanpur is situated in the south-west of the Allahabad on the north bank of the Yamuna river,about 55 km away from Allahabad. It is surrounded by the districts Chitrakoot in the south, Pratapgarh in the north, Allahabad in the east & Fatehpur in the west. However the area occupied by this district has a very glorious past. In Ancient India, Hundreds of years before the christ born, Kaushambi was the capital of Chedi-vatsa janapada, one of the prominent janapadas into which the Indo-Aryan people were divided. As some of these janapadas figure prominently in the Brahmanas and Upanisads, it is not unlikely that the antiquity of Kaushambi goes back to the period of the Brahamanas. The Satapatha Brahamana mentions a person called Proti Kaushambeya, a native of Kaushambi. This hoary antiquity of the city is confirmed by the Mahabharata and the Ramayana, the former ascribing its foundation to Kusamba, the third son of the Chedi King Uparica Vasu and the latter to Kusamba, the son of Kusa.

Great place for spend time in silence

Very peaceful
