About this place
History & highlights
The core of Bahu Fort is believed to date back many centuries, with early foundations often attributed to local Dogra chiefs, and later rebuilt by Dogra rulers in the 18th–19th centuries as Jammu grew in importance. The Kali shrine inside became a guardian temple of the city. The modern gardens and aquarium at Bagh-e-Bahu are post-Independence additions, converting the fort hill into both a heritage and leisure zone.
