The ascent to the Chittorgarh Fort takes one through zigzag paths interrupted at intervals by seven enormous gateways or 'Pols'. The main gate you come across while walking up to the fort is Rampol, the gate of Lord Rama. The different gateways are Padan Pol, Bhairon Pol, Hanuman Pol, Ganesh Pol, Jorla Pol, Lakshman Pol, and Ram Pol. The Suraj Pol is the gate on the east. There are two chhatris (small domed canopies, supported by pillars) where the two famous commanders Jaimal and Kalla fell when Akbar laid siege to the fort in AD 1567.
Near the Padan Pol is the memorial of Rawat Bagh Singh who joined hands with King Vikramaditya to fight against Sultan Bahadur Shah of Gujarat when Chittor fort was attacked the second time. The Bhairon Pol is named in the memory of Bhairondas Solanki who also fought against Sultan Bahadur Shah in AD 1534. The Hanuman Pol, the Ram Pol, and the Lakshman Pol have a temple in their vicinity. The Jorla Pol has two adjacent gateways.
