Mandir entrance was huge and soo Beautiful, gate was under construction though soo big. There are survival garden in this area with a toddler playing kits. They have water chiller with purifier stand in mandir area. Balaji maharaj are on Huge Stone, inside mandir there are incredible work of glass. Soo well maintained and Beautiful. Must visit the place, near highway.

Very nice place to go with family. Nice gardens. Greenery... Lord Hanuman Temple... It is to be said that in ancient times Lord Hanuman came here and take a rest on a rock. Very holy place. 12 kms away from Bhilwara city.

Beautiful Big Swambhu Hanuman ji temple... Countless pigeons and what a greenery around.... Awesome is the only word comes in mind after being there.... Must visit places in Bhilwara...

This place is under construction (more than 85% done), but I can say this the (very) good place to visit near Bhilwara. Spiritual place with quietness

Really spiritual and peaceful place of God Hanuman temple

Nice place for one day picnic

Hanuman temple , believed that shree hanuman appeared here from the ground in the form of rocks which are now coloured in saffron.

Good place to visit , if you want some peace then go Meja Dam. Note:-be aware of "Thief's" Someone stollen my bike() from outside the gate So please park your bike inside the gate after asking to the man who lives their....

Meja Dam is located in Meja village near mandal town. It is called the lifeline of Bhilwara as it caters the need of drinking water. Meja garden is nearby to the dam. Current situation of the garden is very poor. Seems, no one from concerned authorities is taking care of garden. Water level in Dam is also very low. Still, it is watchable.

A nice place to hangout with friends. Natural beauty. You can enjoy Natural Swimming Pool also. 😀😀 A good visit will be in Monsoon.

Many time visited..see detail at zindagi-silasgaikwad utube channel Lovely place

Nice place to visit. Relaxing place. Good for photography as well.

Great place to visit if you want to enjoy the peaceful environment out of your fast running life.

Good destination ...Water dam

Beautiful ❤️ Place... Feelings Relax here 😍 But Please don't eat fast food here. If your health is good. Then you go by walking. Bcz by walking you see beautiful 😍 location... As you look my profile.

Taragarh Dargah Sharif is a very famous and must-visit place in Ajmer. Also known for its spiritual and historical significance, the Dargah is located at the top of a mountain, and the journey to reach it—winding along the hillside—is an experience in itself. , If you’re visiting in summer, no need to worry about the heat—refreshingly cold water is available for free at the Dargah. You’ll also find horses and camels nearby for photos (note: this is a paid activity), and there’s an option to wear traditional Rajasthani attire for photos, which adds to the cultural charm of your visit.😄 Another beautiful aspect is the presence of "Mannati Deg", where you can contribute money. The funds are used to provide food to those in need—a meaningful gesture tied to local tradition. Inside, the Dargah Sharif is truly stunning and peaceful. It was one of the most memorable visits for me! 👍👍

Dargah Hazrat Meeran Syed Hussain Taragarh in Ajmer is a place of profound spiritual significance. The serene ambiance and captivating architecture create an atmosphere of tranquility and devotion. The Dargah exudes a sense of reverence, attracting devotees seeking solace and connection with the divine. The intricate artwork and the beautifully adorned tombs evoke a sense of awe and respect. The Dargah's rich history and cultural heritage make it a must-visit destination for those interested in exploring Shia traditions. A visit to Shia Dargah Taragarh is a truly spiritual and enlightening experience.

People come here during tara garh visit. You can see whole ajmer from top and find good scenery of ajmer

You can see the beauty of Ajmer from that place.

If you are planning to go their Just go as soon possible But beware of those shop keepers inside and outside of Dargah

The place is beautiful but the Khadim are hungry for money The price for going up is 50 rupee from diggy bazaar But khadim association take 150 to 200 from 2.5 din ka Zopda This was the only my worst experience in ajmer otherwise all was good

Varaha Temple is dedicated bhagwan shri vishnu, Temple is looks very old and much of attractive but it is slightly ignore by the pushkar authority. Surrounded by residence also not properly maintained by authority, gives you good vibes. All of you are requested must visit here so that authority make pay some attention to renovate it. No washroom, no proper parking, no drinking water also.

this temple is truly rare, dedicated to the varaha (boar) incarnation of lord vishnu. according to mythology, lord vishnu took this form to rescue the earth from the demon hiranyaksha, who had dragged it to the underworld. the idol is unique — it shows the boar’s snout with a silver disk representing the earth, symbolizing how vishnu sniffed out the earth before lifting it back to the surface. what’s surprising is that this temple is still managed privately by a family for generations, without any government support. considering its rarity and significance in indian mythology, it deserves much more recognition and care.

At a distance of 500 m from Pushkar Bus Station and 600 m from Pushkar Lake, Varaha Temple is one of the largest and ancient temples located in Pushkar town of Rajasthan. It is a Vaishnava temple and also one of the famous temples in Pushkar. The Varaha Temple was built by King Anaji Chauhan in the 12th century AD and is dedicated to Varaha, the third incarnation of Lord Vishnu. The temple was destroyed by Mughal Emperor Aurangzeb and was then rebuilt in the 18th century by Raja Sawai Jai Singh II of Jaipur. According to a legend, Lord Vishnu turned himself into a wild boar and came to earth, to kill the monstrous demon Hirnayaksh, who was going to destroy the whole universe. Varaha slew the demon and retrieved the Earth from the ocean, lifting it on his tusks and restored Bhudevi to her place in the universe. It is one of the most visited temples in Pushkar. This is a fortified temple in Pushkar and is considered to be the most ancient temple in the city. The temple has 2 feet white idol of Lord Varaha in the sanctum sanctorum. Various sculptures, elegant carvings, life-size statues of door men and gold-styled pillars depicting Garuda, the mythical bird are situated within the temple. Timings: 6 AM - 12 PM & 4 PM - 8 PM

It's an old and temple of Varah avatar of Vishnu, in the form of a wild boar. Varaha is generally listed as third in the Dashavatara, (the ten principal avatars). According to a legend, Lord Vishnu turned himself into a wild boar and came to earth, to kill the monstrous demon Hirnayaksh, who was going to destroy the whole universe. Varaha slew the demon and retrieved the Earth from the ocean, lifting it on his tusks and restored Bhudevi to her place in the universe. This temple was initially built in the 12th century by King Anaji Chauhan but was destroyed by Aurangzeb. It was then rebuilt in the 18th century by Raja Sawai Jai Singh II of Jaipur. This temple is considered to be the most ancient temple in the city. The temple has 2 feet white idol of Lord Varaha in the sanctum sanctorum. Various idols including Shiva, elegant carvings, life-size statues of door men and gold-styled pillars depicting Garuda, the bird are situated within the temple. There is a family that lives inside, nice people.

Very old temple. Mostly people had tiled names of thier near and dear ones in loving memory.

This is one of the most rare temples, of the varaha (boar) incarnation which lord Vishnu adopted to bring back earth from the clutches of the demon Hiranyaksha, who had sent it down to hell. The idol is unique: You can see the snout of the boar, with a silver disk representing the earth on it, symbolizing gow lord Vishnu sniffed until he found earth and brought is back up. The temple is managed by a private family since generations, with no assistance from the government. Strange, given how rare this temple is, and such an interesting part of Indian mythology!

Varaha Temple in Pushkar (Rajasthan) is a Hindu temple dedicated to the 3rd incarnation of Lord Vishnu. It is one of the oldest temples in Pushkar and it is located very close to Pushkar Lake. The Pushkar Varaha temple is also included in the Swayamvyakta kshetra list of 8 premium temples where the deity is believed to have self-manifested. The best time to visit the Varaha Temple is in the month of Kartik i.e. Oct/Nov. Timings: 6:00 AM to 12 Noon and then from 4 PM to 8:00 PM. Varaha means “Boar”, a wild boar(pig with tusk). Lord Varah’s idols represented with the head of a wild boar and the body of a man. It is said that when Lord Brahma performed yagya at Pushkar lake, Lord Varaha acted as a protector of Brahma & yagya from the demons This temple is not well protected by the government or the archaeological department. It is encroached upon by the locals and one lady lives inside the temple premises who discourages visitors to visit here.

Savitri Mata Mandir is a beautiful temple located on top of a hill, offering one of the best panoramic views of Pushkar town and the holy lake. The temple has a peaceful aura. If you enjoy hiking, the uphill walk at sunrise or sunset is a wonderful experience, with cool breezes and scenic landscapes. Although the ropeway makes the climb easy for those who don’t want to trek, it was closed when we visited the temple, and had to climb around 970 stairs to reach the temple which took around 45 minutes. The temple itself is simple yet divine, and the view from the top is absolutely worth the effort. A must-visit when in Pushkar. Please note that temple remains closed from 12 pm to 2pm. So, plan your hike accordingly.😊

Two ways of reaching the temple: ropeway and stairs; ropeway takes 180 pp (two way). The place is peaceful with an amazing view of the entire town.

A visit to Shree Savitri Mata Mandir was one of the most unique experiences we had in Pushkar. We climbed all the way up to the temple on foot – about 940 steps leading up the mountain. The climb isn’t easy, especially since the steps near the top are uneven, and some are even broken or damaged, so it’s important to walk carefully. Still, the effort is absolutely worth it – the view along the way is breathtaking, offering wide desert scenery and a stunning view of Pushkar town and the sacred lake below. Towards the end of the climb, we encountered many monkeys, and some of them come quite close to visitors. It’s highly recommended not to hold food in your hands and to keep a safe distance from them – they can be curious and playful. Despite that, the atmosphere throughout the hike is peaceful and special, and reaching the top brings a real sense of accomplishment. The view from the summit is especially beautiful at sunset, when the golden light colors the hills and the town beneath. It’s best to go on a clear day to enjoy the scenery to the fullest. Our walk took about 35 minutes at an easy pace, with a few stops for rest and photos. A truly recommended experience for anyone seeking a mix of spirituality, nature, and a light physical challenge.

Visiting Savitri Mata Temple was a spiritually uplifting experience with breathtaking panoramic views of Pushkar. The temple, perched atop a hill, requires a steep climb or ropeway, adding adventure to the visit. The peaceful aura and divine energy of the temple make it worth the effort. Watching the sunrise or sunset from here is truly magical. It's a perfect blend of devotion, nature, and scenic beauty.

It’s a 1.5 km trek one way. The climb can be a bit challenging, especially toward the end where the stairs get steep, but it’s absolutely worth it. Avoid interacting with the monkeys, they’re not a major concern, but it’s better to stay cautious. Definitely a must-try experience.

This is one of the best hikes I have done in India . Hike is big , neverthess it has proper stairs ; so you won’t slip , or will have your legs dirty . For old people - they have a Ropeway . You will be greeted with lots of monkeys and lots of breathtaking views of pushkar city , on this hike . At end you will reach the temple . Hiking down is same experience amazing .

Love the experience. It's beautiful ❤️😍 and peaceful. Mesmerizing view. Puskar is love for me

Beautiful pattern m regular customer ,superb materials i lyk their designs

I ordered sofa throw and cushion covers from Keshav Handicraft and I am very satisfied with the overall experience. The products are made of good-quality fabric, the stitching is neat, and the designs look elegant. Packaging and delivery were also well managed. Thank you, Keshav Handicraft!

Bought some bed spreads , cushions covers . The owner said he would parcel our good to us in UK along with some of our other items. He sent tracking number of parcel but it never arrived. Upon investigation we found out the parcel never left India and the owner refused to chase his parcel services in India. Lost a lot of money believing that the owner would be trustworthy. 28th April 2025 Finally received my parcel 4 months later. Thank you Keshav Handicrafts 🙏

I really liked the product! It met my expectations and worked well for me. I’ll definitely be buying it again. Highly recommended!

Lovely products and timely delivery! I bought 2 appliqué work bedspreads and 8 appliqué work cushion covers. One of the bedspread had a little discolouration, hence 4 stars. Otherwise the rest of the stuff are perfect!

The cushion covers we ordered are very nicely done. The handiwork is near and intricate and the colours used are beautiful.

Found this wonderful shop on Facebook and what a joyful experience it has been !! The humble tone and positive attitude of Mr Deendayal and his clarity of explaining the details of the product has been truly rewarding...On this day and age, and the manner we get defrauded in the marketplace, even with eyes wide opened...to find such genuine shop which is widely visited by so many celebrities from abroad , with the reviews highly appreciating their quality work and transparency, Their down to earth attitude and gentle demeanor ...we once again can believe in the bygone era of building trust and respect on the true artisans our India is blessed with... looking forward to purchasing many more and also personally visit the shop in near future.

A beautiful and grand modern palace that still houses the royal family of Jodhpur. Only a small section of the palace is open to the public as a museum, but it’s well-maintained and gives a glimpse into royal life. You can also see the vintage car collection of the Maharaja, which is quite fascinating. The architecture and interiors are stunning, showcasing luxury and heritage together. The gardens are vast and beautifully kept, and you’ll often spot many peacocks roaming around, especially near the lawns — though the main garden area isn’t open to the public. The palace sits atop a hill, offering a breathtaking panoramic view of Jodhpur city. Parking is available outside the main boundary. The tour is relatively short but worth visiting for the royal vibe and stunning views.

We visited Umaid Bhavan on a weekend around 12:30 PM, and as expected, it was a bit crowded. Just past the entrance, we found a stall selling delicious kulfi — a small but very welcome treat in the heat. The entry is restricted to only a limited section of the palace, mainly the central museum area. While the accessible part is relatively small compared to the entire property, it still offers beautiful glimpses of the royal interiors, vintage collections, and the palace’s history. Overall, it’s a nice stop if you’re exploring Jodhpur, but be prepared for crowds during weekends and remember that only a portion of the palace is open to the public

Royal Grandeur Meets Automotive Elegance – Umaid Bhawan Museum The Umaid Bhawan Museum, housed within one wing of the majestic Umaid Bhawan Palace, offers a fascinating glimpse into the regal lifestyle of the Jodhpur royals. The museum showcases an exquisite collection of artifacts, vintage clocks, royal portraits, and personal items of Maharaja Umaid Singh. 🚗 Vintage Car Collection: One of the most captivating features is the outdoor display of classic vintage cars owned by the royal family. From elegant Rolls-Royces to stylish Cadillacs, each car reflects timeless luxury and engineering brilliance. It’s a treat for automobile enthusiasts and history lovers alike.

The iconic architecture old palaces in Rajasthan Jodhpur Umaid bhawan is known as pinkish palace one of the largest private residences in the world It's awesome palace. Gaj Singh is the current Maharaja of Jodhpur Palace was built between 1928 and 1943. Taj Umaid Bhawan Palace Jodhpur is a marvel built by Maharaja Umaid Singh of Rathore Dynasty. The youngest palace of India is an architectural splendor, marvelous heritage hotel of Jodhpur and a true royal experience.visit to the Umaid Bhawan Palace museum typically requires 1 to 2 hours Sunday holiday everyday 5 pm will be closed entry fee 100.

When completed the palace had 347 rooms, several courtyards, and a large banquet hall which could accommodate 300 people.It also has vintage car musium.

This museum will make you feel like in another era. As a foreigner, it made me have a deeper understanding of Indian culture especially Rajasthan. The artifacts, the view outside, the architecture, everything is magical. We went there on weekend so it is kinda busy with lots of people but not that suffocating. Overall, it is very nice.

Beautiful place with royal charm! The Umaid Bhavan Museum gives a glimpse into the lifestyle of the Jodhpur royal family. The collection is small but elegant, showcasing vintage clocks, photos, and cars. The palace architecture is stunning, and the surroundings are peaceful. A short yet worthwhile visit.

My Must-Visit Review: Umaid Bhawan Palace Museum in Jodhpur If you are someone who loves historical places as much as I do, you absolutely must visit the Umaid Bhawan Palace Museum. This place isn't just a stunning building; it carries a deep history that truly touched me, and I want to share why I loved it so much! The Inspiring History of the Palace Itself The story of the palace, which is well-documented right inside the museum, is what makes this place so special. Our Jodhpur King, Maharaja Umaid Singh, began building this historical place in the 1930s not for personal luxury, but to help the Jodhpur people who were suffering from severe famine and drought (or as you said, a "pandemic"). The entire construction was a massive employment project designed to give thousands of people work, keeping them fed and safe during a devastating period. To see the historical accounts and photographs of the palace's making inside the museum makes this grand structure feel like a monument built with immense compassion. A Treasure Trove of History Inside the museum, you get to see so many amazing historical artifacts. If you like to see historical stuff up close, you will be completely in your element here, especially with these highlights: • The Clock Collection: There is a super collection of antique and ornamental clocks here! You can see clocks of all shapes and sizes, including unique designs in lighthouse and windmill shapes. • Royal Paintings: You'll also find beautiful paintings, including miniature paintings and murals, that showcase the artistic and cultural history of the royal family. • Other Collectibles: Beyond those, the museum is full of other stuff like royal memorabilia, beautiful crockery, antique furniture, and historical photographs. My #1 Recommendation: The Vintage Cars! You definitely should visit here for all the historical items, but especially for the vintage cars. The collection of vintage cars is spectacular—they are a stunning sight to behold and were the highlight of my visit! It’s incredible to see such well-maintained pieces of automotive history right in the palace complex. My Final Word The Umaid Bhawan Palace Museum is a grand, historical masterpiece with an inspiring story behind it. It’s a perfect visit for anyone who appreciates the past, royal history, stunning artifacts, and, of course, amazing vintage cars! Don't miss it!

They are very skilful n experienced at durry work...It's a great experience..

Biutifull wivig wark vray nice home stay in ramesh home

Thanks family job very good hotel carpet first time mein coming salawas house beautiful beautiful

I had found the great art here. And get to know very unique designs of durry and even very familiar environment. Bestest expirence ever.

This is the place where you can experience village life. These people run this business in their house only. Where they offer home cooked food (i paid 250/- for a thali). very satisfying trip. about 20km from Jodhpur. Owner described the process quite well, describing how they prepare the yarns and colours. Very hospitable too. We went there without a prior appointment, yet were welcomed quite warmly! very quite and peaceful setting. A nice place to spend an hour or so.

This is the place where you can experience village life. These people run this business in their house only. Where they offer home cooked food (i paid 300/- for a thali).

Fascinating, Authentic Weaver and Village Home Stay. Sadly we were not able to stay for a meal, but enjoyed the explanation and seeing the range of different designs from other weaver's in the village cooperative.

A unique experience out of the hustle of city life...comfort home food & amazing host...visit it to unwind .....

The weaving here is incredible. Pieces can take well over a month to complete. Considering this, the prices are very reasonable. Thank food here is wonderful. It is not like the food in the city, it is homemade and has very good flavour. We also watched the food being prepared. I recommend this place very highly to anyone visiting Jodhpur. Om is a fantastic guide and explained the processes very helpfully.

This weaving village in the outskirts of Jodhpur is by no means any ordinary place. The weaving community here have been making hand-made carpets for generations, using their proprietary interlocking weaving style which is hard to find anywhere else. In today's world of consumeristic products and promotion-based selling culture, they still cling on hand woven products, and damn, they are good. You just need an eye to observe and appreciate their work. We visited their place in Dec 2022 to see their art but came back buying two rugs. There cannot be a price to real art, and the talent and effort these craftsmen put it surely dwarfs the price they quote. Do pay a visit if you are in Jodhpur, have a chat with them, share a cup of tea, peek into their lives and you will surely come back with fond memories (and products!).

Our guide, Narendra, took us to this weaving cooperative on our Rajasthan tour in January 2023. What a fascinating experience. Ended up ordering to extra long rugs( runners for hallway). Will post pictures once we receive them.

We visited the Clock Tower in Jodhpur and absolutely loved the vibe of the place. Located in the heart of the old city, it’s surrounded by the lively Sardar Market filled with colorful shops, spices, textiles, and local handicrafts. The sandstone architecture of the tower looks beautiful, especially in the evening lights. It perfectly captures the charm of old Jodhpur — full of life, sounds, and local culture. A must-visit spot for great photos and an authentic city experience!

The Ghanta Ghar is a historical clock tower of Jodhpur. It is located inside the Sardar Market. The entry ticket costs around 25 rs per person. Access to the clock tower is through a series od stairs and there is no lift. The person who looks after the clock mechanism has been doing so for ages. His family is the only group of people who are able to maintain the clock as they have been doing so since the tower was made. The tower also offers great views of the city and the fort. So it is worth a visit.

Beautiful architecture and a mechanical marvel to witness the grand clock still doing it's duty after so many decades. One major disappointment is maintenance and upkeep of the monument and surroundings. It would be fantastic if the premises is maintained well.

Its delicate, intricately carved lattice work allows sunlight to filter through, giving the structure a beautiful, ethereal glow. Offers peaceful gardens and stunning panoramic views of the Mehrangarh Fort and Jodhpur city. A must-visit for architecture and history enthusiasts.

The entry fee is 100 Rupees per person and they also accept card payments. There is also toilets on the grounds. If you are visiting the fort visit this place also. It gets warm very quickly here so come as early as you can. It opens at 9AM.

We visited Jaswanth Thada around 10 AM, and it turned out to be the perfect time, the place was calm with very little crowd. The white marble monument looked absolutely stunning in the morning light, and the whole atmosphere felt serene. The entry fee was ₹30 per person for Indians, and as we walked around, a musician was playing the Ghoomar tune on a Ravanhatta. The music blended beautifully with the surroundings and added so much charm to the experience. We ended up spending almost an hour here, just taking in the architecture, the views, and the peaceful ambiance. A lovely spot to unwind and enjoy Jodhpur’s heritage.

Best experience ever!! I love learning new skills and this is one that i will never forget! I was lucky enough to be on my own when being taught this new method of painting so that made my experience even better ! I enjoyed myself a lot and would definitely recommend to anyone interested in art! Thank you so much :)

We greatly enjoyed our miniature art class at Umaid Heritage School with Tinku and the master Lentil man! They are not only incredibly friendly and talented, but also authentic, trustworthy, and true masters of their craft. Their passion for preserving fine arts and old traditions is truly inspiring. Anyone who appreciates artistry, culture, and craftsmanship will find this experience deeply rewarding. Don’t miss the chance to discover your own artistic side with them, and to be amazed observing the master lentil man in action — it’s an experience to remember! Good for the whole family Lovely place also to buy true miniature art, but also art materials. From your swiss friends, Ricardo & Megan

Such a beautiful art school! We stayed for 4 hours learning how to paint in the traditional way - VJ was very knowledgeable and patient with us, he even brought us chai and samosas! We had a fantastic time and all ended up leaving with some gorgeous art work - even if you’re not interested in painting yourself there are tons of beautiful pieces to sift through! Thank you VJ, I would love to come back and learn more techniques :):)

Had a wonderful experience learning how to do miniature paintings - our lesson was so much fun and it made us really appreciate the professional art even more!! Thank you for a great day.

We went for an art class for drawing and painting miniatures. Mr Vijay, the proprietor of the Umaid Heritage Art School was our teacher and guide, and over the course of 3 hours, he helped us paint miniatures from first principles. Even though we did not have any prior experience in painting or drawing, Mr Vijay's teaching style was so good that he was able to "draw" the best out of us. He is patient and enabling, and his own skill as an artist is quite unparalleled.

On a rainy day in Jodhpur would not have asked for a better activity. Mr. Vijay (also popularly known as lentil man) is an excellent teacher and he took us through a quick crash course (abt 2 hours) on miniature art and the technique involved in a process which is passed on by generations and 100’s of years old. If you have sometime and believe in promoting art do try it out. It’s a stone throw within the main clock tower market. Check out the painting that he helped me put together!

We had a great few hours here learning how to do the miniature paintings. Our teacher was very patient and helpful, and we had really interesting conversations about life and culture in India too. 1000 rupees pp. Great experience :)

Good place to chill for few mins but don’t go by Instagram posts. It is ok ok place Connect with me on Instagram and YouTube for more travel updates - “Travel Rogi” is my channel

It doesn't have much to offer except the steep staircase you need to climb down. If the lighting is right the photographs you take might look good, otherwise they'll just look dirty. Not too crowded but it was very hot when we went. Overall worth a small visit after the Ghanta Ghar.

Toor Ji Ka Jhalra, also known as the Toorji Stepwell, is one of the most fascinating heritage spots in Jodhpur and an absolute must-visit for anyone exploring the Blue City. Located in the heart of the old city near the Clock Tower and Sardar Market, this centuries-old stepwell beautifully blends history, architecture, and culture in one frame.The structure is stunning — built from red sandstone with intricate carvings and symmetrical steps leading down to the cool green water. It’s an architectural marvel that reflects the brilliance of ancient Rajasthani craftsmanship. The best part is how the place still feels authentic and rooted in history, even though it has become a popular spot among tourists and locals alike.In the mornings, the site feels peaceful and perfect for photography or quiet reflection. By afternoon and evening, it livens up with people relaxing around, children diving into the water, and tourists capturing Instagram-worthy shots. The surrounding area is full of vibrant cafes, rooftop restaurants, and small handicraft shops that add to the charm — you can easily spend an hour or two here soaking in the atmosphere.The maintenance is fairly good, though it can get a little crowded during peak hours. Visiting early in the day is the best way to enjoy its calm beauty. If you’re a history lover, architecture enthusiast, or someone who enjoys exploring local culture, Toor Ji Ka Jhalra will not disappoint you.It’s not just a stepwell — it’s a living reminder of Jodhpur’s royal heritage and the importance of water conservation in desert architecture.

Its a historical location surrounded by several houses abd shops, nearby you van take a walk and look at why they call the place as blue city. The architecture is splendid, many locals come here for photoshoots. A must place to visit in blue city. There was no much crowd and no place for parking as well, would recommend to go by bike or auto or walk

This place is truly breathtaking 😍 went with my partner and had spent 1.5 hours clicking photos and spending moments. Place is so beautiful that we were awestruck for a few moments.

The toorji ka jhalra is a historic stepwell in Jodhpur. It was a means of collecting rainwater for storage during the harsh summer months. Although stepwells have been in disuse for most parts of the century, people still gather here looking at the space as a hangout spot, to catch up with friends or just to enjoy the quiet. I visited during the Jodhpur arts festival and it was so nice to see the stepwell bringing in so many people in a new way of engagement. Do visit when in jodhpur!

The architecture of this historical site is absolutely amazing! The details, the patterns, and the design itself is wonderful! 💯 It made us rest and relaxed after some time of wandering.

Visiting Mehrangarh Fort is always an amazing experience — I’ve been here twice, with a gap of 10 years, and the feeling of awe remains the same. The fort’s beauty and grandeur are truly timeless. Parking is available below the fort in a large designated area for around ₹50 per car. From there, you walk up to the entry gate to purchase your tickets. You also have the option to hire a guide or rent an audio device (about ₹180 per device). The audio guide works with numbered points displayed around the fort, making it easy to follow along with the history. There’s also a lift facility that can take you directly to the top, allowing you to explore the fort from top to bottom. However, if you take the lift, you will skip points 1–6, so make sure to listen to those explanations before you start, since the audio device has to be returned at point 33. Exploring the fort properly takes at least 1–2 hours, and every corner feels worth it. I also tried the Makhaniya Lassi at their café — definitely a good choice to refresh yourself during the visit. The staff at the fort are very humble and helpful, which adds to the experience. The only advice I would strongly give is: avoid visiting in the summer. The heat can be unbearable. The best time is during the core winter months.

This is one of the most important places to visit while in Jodhpur. This fort is amazing to see both inside and outside the fort. You can get here by Tuk Tuk and pay entry at the ticket office which starts at fort entrance. They accept card payments and also cash. It costs 800 Rupees per person to see the fort but worth it. You can spend approximately 2 hours here walking around and enjoying the historic buildings. It is quite warm here but there are cafes around the fort if you need to buy drinks. There are also toilets on site. I would highly recommend you visit this fort. You can also exit the fort through the Blue City side which is also another nice experience exiting the fort through the Blue City. It gets very busy from early. It is best to come at opening time which is 9am.

We visited Mehrangarh Fort, Jodhpur on March 1, 2025 with our family, and the experience was truly unforgettable. The fort stands as one of Rajasthan’s finest—beautifully preserved and showcasing the true splendour of Marwar’s royal heritage. From the moment you walk through the huge entrance gates, the grandeur is evident. Intricate carvings, elegant jharokhas, spacious courtyards and towering walls paint a vivid picture of the royal era. The museum is equally impressive, featuring royal costumes, weapons, miniature paintings and palanquins that perfectly capture the history and culture of Jodhpur. The entry fee is ₹200 per person, and ₹100 for senior citizens. We didn’t hire any guide but if you want you cant get guide there. For those who prefer not to climb the steep pathways, there is a lift service for ₹50 per person, which takes you directly to the main courtyard — very convenient, especially for families and elders. We spent about 2–3 hours exploring the fort at a comfortable pace. The views from the top are absolutely stunning — a full panoramic view of the Blue City, especially magical during sunset. The fort also has clean washrooms, a nice café offering tea and snacks with scenic views, and a souvenir shop with good-quality local handicrafts. Overall, Mehrangarh Fort is a must-visit in Jodhpur — grand, informative and family-friendly. A perfect mix of history, architecture and breathtaking views.

Absolutely stunning fort! The architecture, views, and museum displays are incredible. The view of the Blue City from the top is unforgettable. The fort is well maintained, clean, and has helpful staff. The audio guide adds great context to the history. It can get a bit hot, so try to visit early morning or evening. Truly a must-visit in Jodhpur!

We really loved visiting Mehrangarh Fort. It was built in 1459 by Rao Jodha and is one of the biggest forts in Rajasthan. The view from the top is amazing. Inside the fort, there is a museum where you can see old weapons, paintings, and royal items. The entry ticket is ₹200 for adults. If you have a student ID card, the ticket price becomes half. The place is very clean, well managed, and a must visit in Jodhpur.

A must visit if you want to get enamoured by ancient structures. Wonderfully preserved so well over the years overlooking the blue city of Jodhpur. Points of attraction - fort, stone carvings, painting, museum. Entry fee Inr 200 for Indians. Time required about 1.5 hours or more

Mehrangarh Fort, located in Jodhpur, Rajasthan, is one of the largest and most majestic forts in India. Perched atop a 410-foot high rocky hill, it dominates the city’s skyline and offers breathtaking panoramic views of the “Blue City” below. Built in 1459 by Rao Jodha, the founder of Jodhpur, the fort is an enduring symbol of Rajput strength, culture, and architectural brilliance. The massive complex is enclosed by thick walls and features a series of grand palaces such as Moti Mahal, Phool Mahal, and Sheesh Mahal, each showcasing exquisite carvings, mirror work, and royal artifacts. The fort also houses one of the best-preserved museums in Rajasthan, displaying palanquins, weapons, paintings, and turbans that narrate centuries of royal history. Mehrangarh is not just a monument; it is an experience filled with vibrant traditions. The sound of folk music, the sight of intricately dressed guards, and the serenity of ancient courtyards transport visitors to a bygone era. Its imposing gates, including Jai Pol and Fateh Pol, still bear marks of historic battles. Today, Mehrangarh Fort stands as a proud reminder of Rajput valor and heritage, attracting travelers from around the world.

A stunning, photographer's paradise! The intricate architecture and aged stones offer incredible texture for moody shots, while the vibrant greenery and open spaces provide beautiful natural light for portraits. A must-visit for anyone looking for unique frames beyond the typical tourist spots.

First time here, loved it. The architecture was mesmerizing. I took at at least 10 mins to view each part of this Garden. The temple in the end was the best. Came right on time for arti, felt really blessed. The garden has so many places to click beautiful pictures. You'll have to beaware of the monkeys around, they are a lot of them. I'd recommend a visit to this place at least once if you're in Jodhpur.

Mandore Garden, located about 9 km north of Jodhpur, is a historic site that once served as the capital of the Marwar kingdom in the 6th century. The garden is famous for its temple-like cenotaphs (chhatris) dedicated to Marwar’s former rulers, especially the grand memorial of Maharaja Ajit Singh. It also features the Hall of Heroes with rock-carved statues of Rajput warriors, a temple dedicated to 33 crore Hindu gods, and a museum displaying ancient artifacts. Surrounded by lush greenery, vibrant flowers, and serene landscapes, Mandore Garden beautifully combines royal history, architecture, and nature, making it a peaceful attraction for visitors to Jodhpur.

Nestled just outside the bustling city of Jodhpur, Mandore Garden offers a serene and historically rich escape from the typical Rajasthani fort and palace itinerary. This sprawling garden complex, the ancient capital of the Marwar region, feels more like an enchanting, overgrown sanctuary than a manicured park. The main attraction is its stunning collection of dewals, or cenotaphs, built in memory of Jodhpur’s rulers. Unlike the typical chhatris found elsewhere, these are immense, temple-like structures, featuring intricately carved red sandstone facades that soar multiple storeys high. The Hall of Heroes, with its giant, brightly painted figures of deities and Rajput warriors, adds a unique folk-art charm. Monkeys playfully scamper across the lawns and ancient structures, adding to the garden's lively, untamed atmosphere. The overgrown foliage and the quiet, almost mystical ambiance make it a perfect spot for a peaceful stroll. Climb up to the higher terraces for beautiful views and to explore the rock-cut hall and temple. Mandore Garden is a captivating blend of history, architecture, and nature. It’s a less crowded, more relaxed alternative to Mehrangarh Fort, offering a poignant and picturesque glimpse into Rajasthan’s regal past. A must-visit for those seeking a different side of Jodhpur.

must-visit destination for anyone interested in architectural heritage, the Mandore Gardens is a beautiful garden that delights people of all age groups on their Jodhpur tour. It is a kind of place that invites history buffs to sneak peek into the history of the region and learn more about its culture through numerous attractions located within the complex. Inside the garden there are small cafeterias that serve delicious food. Small toy train is the main attraction for both kids and adults. While entering the garden, we came to know that Mandodari and Ravan got married here as mandodari was from Jodhpur.

Toilets Available Dog-friendliness Is it but not recommended based on cleanliness of the park Picnic area Ample space

I enjoy a lot the walk around the roa Jodha park. Nice and quiet place, surrounded by green. I did the green trail and took me only 35 minutes slowly walking. The yellow was only 20 minutes. You can see the wall and another nice view of the fort and blue city. Outside they have clean toilets.

A very Unique where one can find different stones and walk a trail… In a walk there’s a different bird watching, a lake and the back side of mehrangarh fort… it’s worth a watch especially for nature lovers… the ticket price is 100 rs per adult

Went for morning trekking and it's a awesome place for bird watching . There are different tracks as per difficulty level, I was suggested for yellow tack however that's too easy and short, tried others too and on red found a lotus pond. Perfect view of fort and lake. I recommend to check those stones displayed outside the ticket counter, they are fossiles and some are very unique.

It was a very nice experience of trekking of 2 KM by foot through rocky desert hills with the experience of a lot of different varieties of plant species, birds, squirrels, lake and fishes, reptiles, wild pigs and vast view of Mehrangarh Fort and its boundary walls, zip lines. It will take a minimum of half an hour and maximum up to your interest. Entrance fee of Rs. 100/- to be paid and a Guided tours are also available with additional fees.

Nice green park to get away from 'beep beep beep' and give the head some much needed peace. Always a good idea when travelling in India to find a quiet place for an hour or two. Guards there were very sweet at the entrance too.

A beautiful place in the middle of the city, and most loved by nature lovers. A must visit natural rocky desert in the Jodhpur city behind Mehrangarh Fort. Monsoon season is best for visit.

Feels like I need 4-5 hour to visit whole park . If you want to click nature then this is best park to visit . I am visiting first time here I think guard is must needed . There is no guard facility to visit .

BalSamand Lake in Jodhpur is a hidden gem. The tranquil surroundings, picturesque views, and historic significance make it a must-visit destination. Perfect for nature lovers, photographers, and those seeking peace. A great spot to relax and unwind amidst nature's beauty. Don’t miss a candle light dinner and barbecues.

This is my first time for Birdwatching activity conducted by Rao Jodha Desert Park environmental study group. Due to great care and maintenance this place reserves natural habitat for plants and animals. The old buildings in surrounding lakes impart vintage lifestyle also.

My family was so happy to be here. This is Mind blowing place and a place where we could find a peace of life.

Perfect picnic spot in jodhpur

Balsamand Lake is a lake situated 5 kilometres (3.1 mi) from Jodhpur on Jodhpur-Mandore Road. This lake is a popular picnic spot, built in 1159 AD by Gurjara-Pratihara rulers.

An Oasis of joy in the middle of a desert. Beautiful gardens, gorgeous rooms and a sense of being detached from time itself. A place that takes you away from it all and helps you to get to know someone that you had not really taken pains to know for some time....yourself.

Evidence suggests that Osian is a very old settlement. Some of its early names include Uvasisala, Ukesa and Upkesapur-pattana. In its early history, the village was a center for Brahmanism. It was a major stop for camel caravans during the Gupta period.[6] The town was an important center for the Pratihar dynasty. Tradition states that, after being abandoned for a time, the village was re-established by Utpaladeva (c. 900-950). Utpaladeva converted to Jainism, and turned the village into a center for the religion. However, Jainism had a presence in the village long before that. The town was prosperous and successful at this time. At its peak, it had over three hundred Jain temples.[7] Muhammad of Ghor and his Turkish and Muslim armies attacked the town in 1195. The people of the city fled during these attacks. Most of the city, and most of its temples, were destroyed. After this attack, the residents did not return, and the city became deserted

Very beautiful temple taken care by total neglect. Nobody around, no demarcation, surroundings used as parking. Looks like it is not in use any more. Acts as parking ground for Osian Mata temple visitors. It has unique style of railings which is angled outwards from 3 sides. Some walls are perfect example of badly restored piece.

Very beautiful temple!

Such a great place for visiting

No statue no maintenance

Not good

Lovely place

Really beautiful and very much intricately carved Jain temple in Osian. May be due to the narrow approach road, it is not so popular as it should be. Better to park the vehicle at designated parking near Osian temple and walk from there. Some local autos run up to Jain temple and only they can negotiate these narrow lanes and tight curves. Once you reach in, it's a totally wonderful world! Almost silent, no crowds, enjoy the beauty and serenity of the temple. You may check out each pillar carved so finely that, you need an up close look to really admire the carvings. Didn't find good options for water, snack etc nearby, so be prepared for any sudden need. Keep water during summer as the stones get really hot.

A Hidden Gem for Authentic Handcrafted Treasures I recently visited kanooga handicrafts,and it was a truly delightful experience. The shop is a treasure trove of beautifully handcrafted items that reflect the skill, culture, and creativity of local artisans. From intricately designed pottery and handwoven textiles to carved wooden artifacts and unique home décor pieces, every item tells a story.The quality of the craftsmanship is exceptional, and it’s clear that a lot of care and tradition go into each piece. The shop has a warm, welcoming atmosphere, and the staff were incredibly knowledgeable—happy to explain the origin and process behind each craft. Prices are fair, especially considering the time and effort that go into making these products. It’s the perfect place to find meaningful gifts or to add a unique touch to your own home

“A must-visit for history and military enthusiasts! The museum offers an impressive collection of artifacts, weapons, and stories of valor. Well-maintained and informative — a great way to learn about India’s defense legacy.”

Army and defence enthusiasts will enjoy this place. Ideal time to visit is early morning or evening before September. As in the open area there's not much shelter so it can get hot. You can relax on the grass and enjoy the view over there. Inside the museum there are articles used in the the wars with details of their time of use and basic working. You get an overall history of the wars fought by army batallions. There's a show as well which is scheduled throughout the day. Do visit the souvenir shop over there. They have really interesting things to get over there. Overall time taken to explore is about 1 to 1.5 hour. If you're not much into reading and history then this is not for you.
