Madhavgad Fort Amboli

Currently, Madhavgad Fort might be completely in ruins, but it once used to get a lot of attention for its grand structure, which is four times the size of Shaniwarwada in Pune. The fort is built on a road, and landmark is a tombstone, which acts as a memorial to a battle that once took place here. Not much is known about the fight but an inscription on the tombstone reads that one British soldier died. Panoramic view of the Arabian sea from the fort is breathtaking.

Taxis are easily available from anywhere in the city to reach the fort
