Harji Fort was built by Thakur Tej Singh
Champawat, three hundred years ago. The fort has undergone several
changes since then and resembles Indo-European architecture. Named after
an ancient Shiva temple called Har-Har Mahadev, Harji is located between Ranak Hills on the right and Jawai river on the left.
The lineage comes down to the present Thakur Parikshit Singh, who moved
into the family home, after working in tea, coffee and rubber
plantations in South India. The Fort lies in the heart of the village
and is set amidst lush green gardens, it is surrounded by a number of
temples and forts.
