Folk Performances
The folk forms of any place, are a repository of it's culture and history. They express the body of culture shared by a particular group of people. Punjab's rich performing art forms are scheduled the full day-from the powerful Gatka, to the energetic Bhangda and the vibrant Gidda, set to the exhilarating beat of the Dhol- the barrel shaped drum, carved out of a single block of hard wood, usually about 20-26 inches long. Harnessed around the shoulders using a thick cotton belt and played with a pair of sticks, its typical 8 beat pattern the Chaal, creates the heady sound which is perhaps most popular in Punjab.

Fun Rides
One of Maharaja Ranjit Singh’s great passions was his love for horses. He had more than 1200 of them in his stables and as many as 1000 were reserved for him personally. He sometimes used to say that where he felt surest of himself was in the saddle. They say he often took important decisions on horseback.
Come ride the horses like Maharaja Ranjit Singh, in princely splendor. Our expert handlers will safely give you a ride even if you are not a rider.
You can also enjoy camel ride, couple cycling, Segway, ATV ride and virtual reality show at the fort.
