One of the most well-known facts about Jaigarh Fort is that it is home to the World's Largest Cannon on Wheels. This, known as Jaivana, was made in the Fort's cannon foundry. I don't think my photographs do this cannon's massive size justice. The amusing aspect is that, despite its size, it was never utilized in a conflict! It was only fired once for a test, and the cannon projectile went 35 kilometres.
