Datia Palace

Historical landmark
Sights & Landmarks
Mosque
Architectural Buildings
Majestic&Mysterious Datia Palace An absolutely hidden gem & also known as the Satkhanda Palace & Bir Singh Ji Deo Palace, this resplendent 7storeyed palace is an excellent representation of Indo-Islamic style of architecture. Located on the Gwalior - Jhansi highway and only 75kms from Gwalior this is palace is A MUST SEE for those who love to get a peak into the bundela Dynasty history. They're are local guides available at the entrance of the palace, though most of the information is available online. Ticket costs Indians -25Rs Time taken to see palace -1.5hours This 400+ rooms palace is said to have never been inhabited by the king who commissioned it in 1620A.D(neither his family)nor the emperor ( Jehangir) for whom it was built. Historians believe that after the constructions Maharaja Deo Ji extended an invitation to the emperor, who politely declined,thus living it inhabited for time immemorial. The palace is built of purely stone and bricks.The architecture of arched doorways and domes and lattice work reflect Mughal influences, while sculptures and very few paintings depict birds, animals, and flowers in the Rajput style, one can see glimpses of it in certain parts of the palace. The beauty of the palace lies in its sheer size and space and the numerous chhatris crowned with ribbed domestic. A small part of the palace is under renovation but majority of it is open to public, so one can easily enjoy the grandeur of this place.

Datia Palace of King Veer Singh is absolutely stunning. Not sure why it is not promoted more. It's huge and takes time to explore. Wish there were guides to explain more on the history.
Prashant C — Google review
Datia Fort (Datia Palace) is a hidden gem for history buffs, architecture enthusiasts, and those seeking a unique, off-the-beaten-path historical experience. Its architectural brilliance, intriguing history of being largely uninhabited, and the panoramic views it offers make it a truly memorable destination in Madhya Pradesh. It's a testament to the grandeur and artistic prowess of the Bundela rulers and provides a captivating glimpse into India's rich past.
Aditya S — Google review
Though not so well known it is a very nice place. Way to reach the palace was also not good. Ticket price for entry was reasonable. But guide charged Rs500. So we did not take a guide. The ground floors were bit dark. But the main palace area was very nice. Renovation work was in progress.
Jayita S — Google review
Discovering the gem of Bundelas is an adventure in itself. The narrow, rustic road, with cows ambling and potholes aplenty, might not prepare you for the breathtaking splendor of this eight-floored palace. Surprisingly, it was built but never inhabited. Navigating through the palace, adorned with mesmerizing wall paintings and intricate meenakari work, is like stepping into a different era. However, the maze-like structure can be disorienting, especially without a guide or fellow travelers. Traveling alone, as I did, made it a bit challenging to find my way out, with similar-looking doors leading to dead ends. The palace, though silent in terms of occupancy, speaks volumes through its art and architecture. Why visit? To witness a grand palace that diverges from the Rajput or Islamic styles, offering a unique historical perspective. However, if Indian medieval history doesn't captivate you, or if you're not a fan of sharing space with a bat family, this might not be your ideal destination.
Viraj T — Google review
Situated approximately 70 kms away from Gwalior. This palace is a perfect representation of Rajput and Mughal architecture, its a 7 storyed structure with some very beautiful blend of artistic ceiling and carvings. Highly recommended
Rajib L — Google review
The gem of Bundelas.. The narrow rustic road filled with cows and potholes doesn't make you ready to see the breathtaking magnificence of this palace. Hard to digest this 8floored palace was built but never lived. The yet there wall paintings, the meenakari work leaves you spellbound. It's easy to get lost if you are not with a guide or other travellers. So make sure you are not travelling here alone, as I was. It took me quite a long time to get out of here as all the doors looked the same leading to dead ends. Why will you visit? To see a palace which is not related to Rajputs or the Islam but equally grand. Why you should not? If Indian medievel history doesn't grab your attention, this is not for you. Especially with the infestations of bat family.
Jayasree M — Google review
Very nice place. Must visit if in Datia. Don't forget to go all the way up to the top floors. If you're lucky you might see some beautiful wall paintings.

Nature & Parks
City park
Nestled along the picturesque banks of Kishore Sagar Lake in Kota, Rajasthan, the Seven Wonders Park is a delightful destination that showcases miniature replicas of some of the world's most iconic landmarks. Here, you can marvel at stunning versions of the Taj Mahal, Eiffel Tower, Christ the Redeemer, Colosseum, Leaning Tower of Pisa, Great Pyramid of Giza, and Statue of Liberty—all crafted with impressive detail. This park offers a unique opportunity to experience these global wonders without leaving India.
On the banks of kishore sagar lake, a very decent park with very nice replication of all the 7 wonders of the world. Take atleast an hour or two and enjoy every monument and the lake too. You may even try the speed boat ride from here. Toilets are there but very badly managed, and an okok type eatery. Only 20 rs entry charges, parking extra.

Seven Wonders Park in Kota is one of the most unique and attractive destinations in the city, drawing visitors of all ages. Situated near Kishore Sagar Lake, this park is famous for its beautiful replicas of the Seven Wonders of the World, offering a global experience right in the heart of Rajasthan. The miniatures include the Eiffel Tower, Statue of Liberty, Leaning Tower of Pisa, Great Pyramid of Giza, Taj Mahal, Christ the Redeemer, and Rome’s Colosseum. Each monument is crafted with impressive detail, making it a delightful spot for photography enthusiasts and travelers alike. The park is especially charming in the evening when it is illuminated with colorful lights, creating a mesmerizing atmosphere. The backdrop of Kishore Sagar Lake further enhances its beauty, providing a perfect setting for leisurely walks and peaceful moments. For families, it is a wonderful picnic spot where children can enjoy exploring and learning about world monuments. Couples and friend groups also find it a relaxing place to spend quality time. One of the best aspects of Seven Wonders Park is its affordability. The entry fee is minimal, which makes it accessible for everyone. Cleanliness and maintenance are also fairly good, adding to the overall experience. Small food stalls and vendors nearby offer snacks, making it convenient for visitors. However, the park can get crowded on weekends and holidays, so those who prefer a quieter experience may enjoy visiting on weekdays. Parking facilities are available but could be better organized during peak hours. Overall, Seven Wonders Park is a must-visit attraction in Kota. It combines entertainment, education, and relaxation in one place, giving visitors a memorable experience of seeing world-famous monuments without traveling across the globe.

It’s right by the lake and has small replicas of famous wonders like the Taj Mahal, Leaning Tower of Giza, pyramids. It’s good for a casual walk, taking pictures. It is not very well maintained. & Nothing too fancy, but a nice spot if you’re in Kota

A must visit if you are in Kota, great for young kids. Visited 7 Wonders Park after a while. Disappointed with the overall upkeep and housekeeping of this one of a kind tourist attraction in Kota. There is weed growing on Statue of Liberty and The Pyramid. The entire premises and the monuments are poorly lit. Didn't see enough security personnel in the park which is another big concern A humble request to the authorities to take action and restore the beauty and glory of this landmark

Bad experience was we had to go there 3 time because of rain and confusion also , we went there especially for chambal safari but we didn't find any ticket counter & then we got to know we have to pre-book it through online , then we did call to that agency for booking but they refused saying it's late now & saying you have to book earlier . so the timing was at 5 pm so we need to book tickets earlier at 3pm or u can also book in evening for tomorrow morning for 5 am safari & the charges are 2000 per person if you are four person and charges are 1800 per person if you are group of count 6.

Taragarh Fort

Mentioned on 
+67 other lists 
Historical landmark
Sights & Landmarks
Perched on a hill, Taragarh Fort in Bundi is a captivating sight with its rich history dating back to 1113. The fort and the sprawling Garh Palace offer an abundance of historic marvels for enthusiasts. Nature lovers can also revel in the beauty of Jait Sagar Lake and explore Raniji ki Baori. Visitors can expect a bustling atmosphere during peak season from October to January, while February and March provide moderate weather for a more tranquil experience.
Visiting Taragarh Fort was a highlight of our trip to Bundi. The entrance fee for foreign tourists is 600 INR, which includes access to both the fort and the palace. We highly recommend going early in the morning, especially in March, as the temperatures rise quickly later in the day. We started with the fort, which has a fascinating, abandoned atmosphere, making it feel like stepping back in time. The beautiful old paintings and the stunning 360-degree views from the top are absolutely worth the climb. It was incredibly peaceful—we felt like we had the entire place to ourselves. We wouldn’t recommend hiring a guide, but we were lucky to meet Rama, a friendly security guard who shared amazing information about the fort and its surroundings. His knowledge and enthusiasm made our visit even more special. On our way down, we explored the palace, but for us, the fort itself was the real highlight. If you love history, stunning views, and a quiet escape from the crowds, Taragarh Fort is a must-visit!
Marle R — Google review
The great fort of Bundi known as Taragarh Fort is lying in a rather dilapated condition today. Approx 1/4th part has been restored and made open to public. The fort walls encircle the entire hill. If restored, it can be a great walk along the high walls of the fort. Ticket price for Indian is 100 INR. There is parking in front of the fort. From the ticket counter and through the main gate, it is a steep wall of 200 meters to the main Hathi Pol gate. As only a limited part of the fort is open, you need to follow a certain route to explore the fort, manned by guards. The view of Bundi town from the fort is beautiful. Badal Mahal is the most beautiful section where you can enjoy the remnants of original Rajputana paintings. Lot of gates installed to ensure no one wanders off in No entry sections. Hope ASI and GoI thinks to restore this fort, symbol of valour of the Hadouti kingdom.
Ankur D — Google review
Taragarh Fort and Garh Palace are truly remarkable architectural landmarks, and the fact that they share a common entry ticket makes the visit even more worthwhile. Garh Palace sits at the bottom of the hill, while Taragarh Fort crowns the top, offering a unique combination of history and scenic views. The entry fee for Indian adults is Rs. 100 (different for students and foreign nationals), with an extra charge for digital cameras. The sites are open from 8:00 am to 5:00 pm, and the ticket also includes access to Kshar Bagh. There is convenient vehicle parking just before the fort entrance, and toilet facilities are available at the main gate. The climb to the fort is steep with uneven terrain, so comfortable footwear like trekking shoes is highly recommended. Carrying water, sun protection, and wearing light clothing makes the experience much easier. Unfortunately, the main Taragarh Fort area was closed during our visit due to the presence of a tigress from the nearby forest, but even from outside, the fort walls glowing a golden yellow after dark were absolutely stunning, a sight worth waiting for. One suggestion for improvement would be to add a natural stone staircase with a railing along the pathway. This would make the climb safer and more comfortable for visitors. Overall, it’s a fascinating place with a lot of heritage and charm, definitely worth exploring.

Taragarh Fort is a hidden gem in Bundi, Rajasthan, that surpasses the beauty of its more popular counterparts. Despite its understated charm, this stunning fort remains off the beaten path, making it a must-visit for those seeking an authentic experience. Although it lacks the attention and maintenance it deserves, Taragarh Fort's raw beauty and serene surroundings make it a standout destination. If you're in Bundi or Rajasthan, do yourself a favor and add this fort to your itinerary – you won't regret it!

Garh Palace, also known as Bundi Palace, is a royal Rajput castle with smaller palaces dating back to the 17th century. Rudyard Kipling was so captivated by its charm that he mentioned it in his writings. The palace boasts colorful wall murals and engravings, although some areas are closed to the public. From the magnificent Taragarh Fort to the sprawling Garh Palace, visitors will find plenty of historic sites to explore in Bundi.
This is the best place I visited in Bundi..I am not going to that palace but from the outer side also it's looking good. All Bundi city will be visible from this palace.

Taragarh Fort in Bundi, Rajasthan, is a mesmerizing historical site that showcases the grandeur of Rajput architecture. Perched atop a steep hill, the fort offers breathtaking panoramic views of Bundi city and the surrounding landscape. Built in the 14th century by the Chauhan rulers, Taragarh Fort is known for its massive gates, intricate carvings, and impressive battlements. One of the highlights of the fort is the Bhim Burj, a giant cannon platform that reflects the strategic importance of the structure. The tunnels inside the fort add an element of mystery, while the reservoirs carved out of rock display the advanced water management system of that era. Although the fort is in a partially ruined state, it still retains its old-world charm. The trek to the fort is a bit challenging but completely worth it for history lovers and adventure seekers. It is advisable to visit early in the morning or late in the afternoon to avoid the heat. There are no commercial shops inside, so carrying water and snacks is recommended. Overall, Taragarh Fort is a must-visit for anyone interested in history, architecture, and stunning scenic views.

I recently visited Bundi Fort Palace, and it was truly one of the highlights of my trip. The fort and palace stand majestically above the town, and the first thing that struck me was the sheer scale and beauty of the architecture. The intricate murals, detailed frescoes, and the old-world charm of the palace give you a sense of stepping back in time. The palace interiors, especially the “Chitrashala” (painting gallery), are absolutely mesmerizing with their well-preserved miniature paintings that depict scenes from royal life and mythology. It feels like an open history book. The panoramic view of Bundi town from the fort walls is breathtaking — blue houses, lakes, and rolling hills all in one frame. That said, the palace is not fully restored, and parts of it show signs of neglect. Some areas are locked or not easily accessible, and you can clearly see how time has weathered the structures. But in a way, that adds to its authenticity and untouched charm. If you’re someone who enjoys exploring heritage sites that are not overly commercialized, this place is a gem. I’d recommend hiring a local guide — it really enriches the experience since there’s so much fascinating history that you’d otherwise miss. The climb up can be a little tiring, so wear comfortable shoes and carry water. Overall: Bundi Fort Palace is a must-visit for history and culture lovers. It’s quieter and less crowded than many other forts in Rajasthan, making it feel special and personal. A hidden treasure that deserves more recognition.

Garh Palace & Taragarh Fort is a magnificent landmark in Bundi, offering a deep glimpse into Rajasthan’s rich heritage. The complex is vast, with many beautiful sections like Hathi Pole, Ratan Daulat, Chatar Mahal, Phool Mahal, Badal Mahal, and the stunning Chitra Shala. The lower part, Garh Palace, and the upper Taragarh Fort together showcase the grandeur of Rajput architecture, untouched by Mughal influence. The palace was originally built in the 17th century and later expanded with additions like Chattar Mahal and Badal Mahal. It once served as the royal residence of Bundi’s rulers and still carries that regal charm today. What makes it especially impressive is how well it was constructed on such a steep incline centuries ago. Entry tickets are reasonably priced (Rs. 100 for Indian adults, with separate charges for cameras), and parking is available just outside. The visiting hours are from 8 AM to 6 PM. Do note that the climb to the fort is steep and at times slippery, so wearing trekking shoes is highly recommended. Carry enough drinking water, wear comfortable clothes, and use sun protection for a pleasant experience. While the palace is mostly intact, it does need some upkeep, and a stone staircase with railings would make it more accessible for senior visitors. That said, it’s absolutely worth visiting if you appreciate ancient architecture and want to experience the charm of Bundi’s history firsthand. Please note that the ticket to Kshar Bagh is included in this same ticket.

Garh Palace, Bundi – A Regal Echo of Rajasthan's Glorious Past Built by: Rao Raja Ratan Singh and his successors. Entry Fee: Indian Nationals - ₹80 to ₹100 Foreign Nationals - ₹500 to ₹600 1. Architecture – A Rajput Marvel Garh Palace reflects the finest traditions of Rajput Architecture. Tall sandstone walls, intricately carved pillars, multilevel courtyards, and beautifully arched gateways define its structure. Unlike other palaces that lean heavily on symmetry, Garh Palace flows with the natural slope of the hill, making it unique and organically majestic. 2. Chitrashala – The Soul of the Palace The heart of Garh Palace lies in its Chitrashala (Hall of Paintings). This section is a painter’s paradise and a connoisseur’s delight. The walls and ceilings are adorned with vibrant miniature paintings depicting scenes from: A. The life of Lord Krishna – his raas-leela, childhood pranks, and divine plays. B. Romantic tales of Radha-Krishna and Rajasthani women. C. Royal court scenes, festivals, monsoon celebrations, and more. These paintings, primarily done in hues of blue and green, are still intact and untouched by time or modern restoration, giving them an authentic aura. 3. Palatial Sections – Each with a Story Badal Mahal (Palace of Clouds): Built at a height, it gives the feeling of living amidst clouds. Phool Mahal (Palace of Flowers): Used for private moments, decorated with floral patterns. Chhatra Mahal: Richly adorned with frescoes and mirror work, reflecting royal taste. Ratan Daulat: A stable complex built with strategic design, showing the military wisdom of the rulers. 4. Cultural and Historical Importance Garh Palace was not merely a royal residence. It was a center of art, literature, and governance. The Maharanas of Bundi patronized artists, poets, and scholars, making the palace a cultural hub during its golden age. Even today, the spiritual and royal vibration can be felt in its silent corridors. 5. Atmosphere and Experience Climbing up the sloping pathways to the palace feels like ascending into history. The peaceful ambiance, chirping birds, and occasional breeze whisper tales of valor and romance. The view of Bundi city below, with its blue houses and serene lake, adds magic to the experience. Conclusion: Garh Palace is not just to be seen—it is to be felt. It captures the soul of Bundi with its silent grace and artistic depth. For lovers of history, art, and royal India, this palace is a must-visit gem. Travel Tip: Visit early in the morning or late afternoon for better light and fewer crowds. Don't miss the Chitrashala, and if possible, hire a local guide to uncover hidden stories.

Chittorgarh Fort is a massive citadel complex that spans over 240 hectares and has been standing for over a millennium. It is not just a fort, but almost a self-sufficient township with ornate palaces, temples, and gateways. This historic site holds great significance as it was the capital of the Mewar kingdom for eight centuries and witnessed many dramatic events.
Welcome to chhitorgarh fort. Its world's largest fort. You will find majorly ruins but those ruins also gives idea that our history was glorious. Fort area, Kirti stambh, trimurti mandir and johar kund these are the major points to cover over there. I will suggest to visit the place with guide. They will tell about the history as well as they will help you to take some good photos. You can also buy sitafal aka custard apples over there as place is surrounded by custard apple trees.

The fort is one of most amazing forts in India. Though managed by govt agencies, it is a decent job. Pros 1. All important places inside the fort are accessible by road in your car. 2. Sufficient auto rickshaw services are available. 3. Key historical sites are well maintained. 4. Guides are reasonable, knowledgeable and communicate well. Cons. 1. Light and sound show is slow and boring. There was mention of Maharana Pratap. It ended abruptly. Don't waste time and money. 2. Be careful while driving up and down the fort as there are narrow gates to cross and most drivers don't have patience to stop.

Chittorgarh Fort is truly breathtaking. The scale, history, and architecture are incredible, and the views from the top are absolutely magical. One of the highlights of my visit was watching the sunset at the Johar place — it’s an experience I’d highly recommend to anyone visiting. The atmosphere during sunset is unforgettable. A quick tip for visitors: you pay for your car only once at the entrance, and the entry ticket for people is also a one-time ticket. Make sure you keep your ticket with you at all times because you’ll be asked to show it at multiple points throughout the fort. That said, the management can definitely improve the overall visitor experience. The fort is huge, and without a tour guide, navigation becomes confusing. There aren’t enough clear signs, directions, or explanations about what each site represents, so it’s easy to feel lost. Better maintenance, informative boards, and a more organized route would make a big difference. Overall, the fort itself is extraordinary and absolutely worth visiting — but the tourist management could be improved to match its grandeur.

The Last Flame of ChittorgarhThe sun dipped low over the vast stone walls of Chittorgarh Fort, painting them in shades of gold and crimson. Inside the fort’s silent courtyards, Princess Padmavati stood gazing at the Vijay Stambh. The tower seemed to whisper tales of valour—of warriors who had once guarded these gates with unyielding courage.For weeks, siege drums had thundered beyond the ramparts. Alauddin Khilji’s army, vast as the desert sands, encircled the fort like a tightening noose. But Chittorgarh did not bow easily. Each day, arrows flew, swords clashed, and the Rajput war cry echoed against the granite hills.On the eve of the final battle, Maharana Ratan Singh stood before his soldiers. “Tomorrow,” he declared, “we fight not for victory, but for honour.” That night, the women of the fort, dressed in the saffron of sacrifice, prepared for the terrible ritual of jauhar. Flames roared in the subterranean chambers as Padmavati, her face calm yet resolute, stepped forward, her eyes fixed on the immortal sky.When dawn came, the gates of Chittorgarh swung wide, and the Rajputs rode out—steel in hand, death in heart. The clash was fierce, but the fate of the fort was sealed. By sunset, the walls stood silent again, watching over the ashes of courage.Centuries passed. Today, visitors wander the fort’s ancient paths, touch the cool stone of the Vijay Stambh, and feel the air hum with the spirit of Chittorgarh. The last flame still flickers—in the heartbeats of those who remember.

If you're looking for an unforgettable piece of Rajasthan's history, make the trip to Chittorgarh Fort. It's a massive place—more like a historic walled town than just a fort—and it holds some of the most dramatic and important stories of Rajput valor and sacrifice. Visitor Highlights: The fort is built on a huge hill, so be prepared for a long day of exploring. You definitely need a car or hired rickshaw/taxi to get around the 7km loop inside the walls. Vijay Stambh (Victory Tower): This is the fort's centerpiece. It's a nine-story tower covered in really detailed carvings of Hindu gods. If you can, take the narrow stairs up—the view from the top overlooking the fort and the city below is fantastic and worth the climb! Kirti Stambh (Tower of Fame): A beautiful seven-story tower built by a Jain merchant centuries ago. It’s smaller than the Vijay Stambh but just as intricate and a great spot for photos. Rana Kumbha Palace: Walk through the extensive ruins of this old palace. It gives you a great sense of the past royal life (and a lot of open space). Rani Padmini's Palace: The setting is peaceful. It's beautiful to see the palace complex reflected in the calm water of the reservoir—it gives a good idea of the scenic beauty that existed alongside the fort’s dramatic history. Meera temple, Jain temples, Gaumukh sarovar, Shiva temple, etc. are added attractions. Get a Guide: Hire a local guide. The fort is huge, and without someone telling you the stories behind the ruins (especially about Rani Padmini), you'll miss 80% of the experience. Time Commitment: Plan on giving this place 3-4 hours, minimum. It’s not something you rush. Comfort is Key: Wear comfortable shoes and take water. It gets hot, and there's a lot of walking involved, even with a car.

Majestic and Timeless Heritage! Chittorgarh Fort is a stunning symbol of Rajput pride, courage, and architectural brilliance. Spread across a vast hilltop, it features grand palaces, ancient temples, and iconic towers like Vijay Stambh and Kirti Stambh — each narrating tales of valor and sacrifice.

A perfect blend of history, culture, and beauty — truly a must-visit heritage site! 🏰✨

I visited Chittorgarh Fort on Sunday morning by auto rickshaw from the railway station. The auto charged around ₹750 (bargaining ₹600–800) for a round trip, including a full fort tour and drop back to the station. The visit took around 4–5 hours, covering all the major attractions. Morning time was perfect — less crowd, easy entry, and pleasant for exploring, though it got very hot and sunny later in the day. In the afternoon, the entry line becomes quite long, taking 45–60 minutes due to heavy rush, so morning is highly recommended. Places Visited: Rana Kumbha Palace – very old and partly damaged, gives a glimpse of ancient Rajput glory. Fateh Prakash Palace (Museum) – royal architecture and historic collections. Meera Temple & Kumbha Shyam Temple – peaceful places linked to Meera Bai’s devotion to Lord Krishna. Vijay Stambha – grand victory tower, inside entry closed but magnificent from outside. Gaumukh Mahadev Kund – serene sacred pond with natural water flow. Padmini (Padmavati) Palace – beautiful palace surrounded by a lotus pond, linked to Rani Padmini’s Johar story. Mahakali Temple – peaceful, spiritual spot for devotees. Jain Kirti Stambha (Jain Trith Stambha) – artistically carved ancient tower dedicated to Lord Adinath. Overall Experience: A wonderful historical trip filled with courage, devotion, and Rajput pride. The fort is vast but well-connected by auto. Best to visit early morning with water and cap, as it gets hot by noon. A must-visit place to truly feel the heritage and bravery of Mewar.

A historical monument with rich heritage. It's importance can be judged by its entry in UNESCO world heritage list. Many temples, historical structures, hills, pagdandi etc are strange and observatory.. A large crowd visits the site daily.. entry ticket is nominal. Day by day in absence of proper look after the structure is diminishing.. fading can be seen everywhere. No security arrangements and guards are few , unable to provide safety to much enlarged area. A great historical architecture monument deserve special attention from both center and state government.

Visiting Chittorgarh Fort was an unforgettable experience. The fort is huge, with incredible history that takes you back in time. Walking through its gates, you feel like you're stepping into a different era. The views from the fort are stunning, especially from the towers and the ramparts, where you can see miles of green hills and the town below. The most memorable part was learning about the brave history of the Rajput kings and queens. The ruins, temples, and step-wells add to the charm. Overall, it’s a place full of history, beauty, and a sense of pride.

Chittorgarh Fort is an awe-inspiring symbol of Rajputana valor, sacrifice, and heritage. Sprawled across 700 acres, it proudly narrates tales of courage and devotion through its majestic structures. The Vijay Stambh, or Victory Tower, stands tall as an eternal reminder of Rana Kumbha’s triumph over the combined armies of Malwa and Gujarat. Intricately carved, it is a masterpiece of Rajput architecture. Bayan Mata temple, lesser known but revered by locals, carries deep spiritual significance. Kalika Mata Temple, which was originally a Sun Temple, reflects how faith evolves with time—its transformation from Surya to Kalika worship is a unique chapter in history. Gaumukh Kunda, a sacred water reservoir, is both a spiritual and architectural marvel, believed to be fed by a natural spring emerging from a cow’s mouth-shaped rock. Samidheshwara Temple, with its intricate carvings and divine aura, is dedicated to Lord Shiva and showcases early medieval craftsmanship. Meera Temple, dedicated to the saint-poetess Meera Bai, is soaked in devotion. Its calm atmosphere and historic relevance make it a serene spot. Together, these monuments make Chittorgarh Fort a living museum of India’s glorious past, and a must-visit for heritage lovers.

One of the biggest live forts in Asia. Still so many homes and shops are visible inside the fort. It takes around 02 to 03 hours to have a complete round of the fort. Old buildings, big cannons and temples will attract your attention. Very few restaurants are available inside the fort, so go there with all your preparations, however you get small stalls for some snacks and drinks.

Maharani Padmini Palace

Mentioned on 
34 lists 
Historical landmark
Sights & Landmarks
The Maharani Padmini Palace, situated within the Chittorgarh Fort, is named after Queen Padmini of Chittorgarh. Known for her beauty and intelligence, she played a significant role in the history of the fort. The palace offers a glimpse into this historical figure's life and the events that unfolded during her time.
Padmini Mahal is a beautiful and historically rich monument, visible clearly even from 100 meters away, making it a striking sight. Situated around water, it creates a scenic and serene atmosphere that enhances its charm. I truly wished I could see it from the inside to experience its architectural beauty more closely. The mahal features several well-maintained and clean dasi rooms nearby, which add to its historical feel and authenticity. However, one downside is that the area from where visitors view the mahal is slightly dirty. The management team should take better care in maintaining cleanliness at this spot to preserve the overall experience of such a stunning heritage site.

During my visit to Sawaliya Seth Temple, I decided to take a short detour to Chittorgarh, and that’s how I ended up at Padmini Mahal. I had heard the name before, but standing there, looking at the structure and the water around it, gave a much deeper feeling than I expected. The mahal isn’t grand in size, but the calmness of the place speaks volumes. It’s surrounded by a water tank, and the reflection of the old structure in the still water adds to its beauty. I just stood for a while near the railing, looking at the central pavilion and imagining how it must have looked in its prime. There was a guide nearby talking about Rani Padmini’s legendary story, and though I wasn’t part of the group, I overheard enough to feel that mix of pride and sadness Chittorgarh is known for. The story, the view, the silence — all of it made me pause for longer than I had planned. If you’ve already come as far as Sawaliya Seth, it’s really worth spending a little extra time to explore places like this in Chittorgarh Fort. Padmini Mahal may not be the largest monument, but it leaves a quiet impression that stays with you.

We visited Maharani Padmini Palace inside Chittorgarh Fort recently, and it was a truly mesmerizing experience! This stunning palace, steeped in history, is a tribute to the legendary Rani Padmini of Mewar, whose beauty and courage are celebrated in Rajput lore. Built in the 13th century, it sits gracefully by a serene lotus pool, offering breathtaking views of the fort and surrounding hills. The intricate architecture, with delicate jharokhas and stone carvings, transports you to a royal era. The guides shared captivating stories of Padmini’s bravery and the fort’s historic sieges, making the visit unforgettable. The peaceful ambiance was perfect for soaking in the rich heritage.

Padmini Palace, also known as Rani Padmavati Palace, is one of the most iconic attractions inside the Chittor Fort in Chittorgarh, Rajasthan. Rani Padmini (Padmavati) was a 13th–14th century queen of the Kingdom of Mewar, renowned for her beauty, dignity, and valor. The palace stands as a symbol of her legendary story and the pride of Mewar’s royal heritage. The palace is beautifully designed and is surrounded by water, giving it a serene and almost floating appearance. The reflection of the palace in the water creates a mesmerizing view, making it a perfect spot for photography and sightseeing. Visitors can explore the palace in about 20–30 minutes, and every corner offers a glimpse into the rich history and architectural elegance of that era. An entry ticket is required to visit, and the palace is open from 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM. The surroundings are clean and well maintained, and the site provides a peaceful environment amidst the historical grandeur of Chittorgarh Fort. Overall, Padmini Palace is a must-visit destination for history lovers, photographers, and anyone who wants to experience the romantic and royal charm of Mewar’s glorious past

​Maharani Padmini's Palace is a historic site in Chittorgarh Fort, Rajasthan, associated with the legend of Queen Padmini and her "Jauhar" (self-immolation) to protect her honor from Alauddin Khilji. The three-storied white palace is uniquely situated in the middle of a lotus pool, symbolizing Rajput pride and sacrifice.
Sumit D — Google review
The Maharani Padmini Palace is an essential stop within Chittorgarh Fort. You visit not just for the architecture, but to stand at the place where a pivotal, emotional moment in Mewar history is said to have occurred. It's a poignant and beautiful spot that connects you deeply to the valor and legends of Rajasthan. ​The Legend: The palace is the central location for the tragic and iconic tale of Rani Padmini, Maharana Ratan Singh, and Sultan Alauddin Khilji. The entire site is imbued with the story of the queen's defiance and the subsequent Jauhar (ritual mass self-immolation) of 16,000 Rajput women. Visitors come primarily to connect with this powerful history of honor and sacrifice. ​The Mirror Chamber: The most famous attraction is the small pavilion area from where Alauddin Khilji was allegedly permitted to glimpse Rani Padmini's reflection in a mirror (or the pool water), which led to his obsession and the eventual siege of the fort. This specific spot is often a key point of narration for guides. ​2. Architectural Highlights ​Jal Mahal Concept: The palace is a unique, three-storied white stone structure surrounded by a beautiful lotus pond/water moat. This architectural feature—a palace surrounded by water (Jal Mahal)—was a distinctive Rajput style, and Padmini Palace is considered one of its early and finest examples, designed to keep the interiors cool during summer. ​Aesthetic: The architecture is characterized by its elegance and distinctly feminine style, with delicate arches, intricate carvings, and chhatris (domed pavilions) crowning the roof. Its simplicity, combined with the serene water setting, creates a quiet, contemplative atmosphere.

The legend of Rani Padmini is one of the most poignant tales in Indian history, and her palace in Chittorgarh Fort stands as a haunting tribute to her story. While the historical accuracy of the tale is debated by scholars, the palace itself remains a powerful symbol of Rajput honor, sacrifice, and the famous 'Jauhar' ritual. A visit to this palace is less about its architecture and more about connecting with the powerful narrative it represents. The palace, a beautiful three-story white structure, is located on the southern part of the fort. It is strategically positioned in the middle of a lotus pool, a design element that adds to its mystique and offers a glimpse into a time of royal privacy and security. The reflection of the palace in the water is a sight to behold, creating a serene and captivating scene that belies its tragic past. The surrounding water body and the intricate Rajput architecture, with its delicate arches and beautiful jharokhas (balconies), make it a fascinating subject for photographs. The most famous part of the palace is a small, elevated pavilion where, according to legend, Alauddin Khilji was allowed to glimpse Rani Padmini's reflection in a mirror. It is said that this single glimpse of her beauty drove his obsession, leading to the devastating siege of the fort in 1303 CE. Today, a guide will still stand at the same spot and demonstrate the angle, allowing visitors to visualize the famous scene. This specific moment of the story, even if a romanticized part of folklore, is what gives the palace its immense emotional weight and draws countless visitors. While the palace is smaller compared to other royal residences within the fort, its significance is unparalleled. It is here that Rani Padmini and thousands of other women are believed to have committed 'Jauhar,' choosing self-immolation over dishonor at the hands of the invading army. The ruined state of the palace adds to this somber atmosphere, making it a place of solemn reflection rather than a cheerful tourist spot. Visiting Rani Padmini's Palace is a unique experience. It’s not just about exploring an old building; it's about standing on the very ground where a monumental act of courage is said to have occurred. The palace serves as a tangible link to a story that has been passed down through generations, symbolizing the unyielding spirit of the Rajputs. It reminds us that history is not just a collection of facts, but a tapestry of human emotions, sacrifices, and legends that continue to inspire and resonate even today. 👍🏻🩷

Rajsamand Lake, also known as Rajsamudra Lake, is a 17th-century reservoir surrounded by intricately carved pavilions, making it a popular spot for picnics and boat rides. The lake is located in the city of Rajsamand in the Indian state of Rajasthan, about 67 km away from Udaipur. It has a circumference of 22.
It was a great experience of pigeon feeding and a nandi bull on the lakeside. Here is the facility of boating. A renowned temple of God Dwarkadheesh ji synonyms of lord Krishna. Divine feeling in the temple. Very tasty and healthy prasadam is sold by the temple committee on economic and affordable prices.

Rajsamand...the district named after the lake. Here resides... art, nature, history and even literature in marble! Another shining name takes forward the golden chain of Bappa Rawal, Maharana Kumbha, Sanga, Pratap, #Maharana_RajSingh Today's Shabd Yatra is in his name! This Sunday I had the good fortune to visit Rajsamudra Lake, a dam built on the Gomti River by Maharana Raj Singh. An unmatched example of #nature #architecture #devotion #art #literature #tradition and #history! The great #Rajprashasti epic written by royal poet Ranchhod Bhatt Telang on a pal and 50 white stones after 9 marble stairs! These have been affected by the ravages of time, most of which have been covered with nets for protection. Slowly moving in blue behind the white marble Rajsamudra gives a different peaceful feeling. How can one not be captivated by the artworks inside the umbrellas, so much detail!!! Just keep watching! Suitable places for photography Kankroli (Rajnagar) town situated on the Udaipur-Bhilwara highway, located near this huge lake, is actually the district headquarters. Despite it seeming like a small city to me, when I saw the good traffic system, I exclaimed that such a system was not seen even in Udaipur. (What to say about Bhilwara!) Kankroli is the district headquarters of Rajsamand district. Rajasthan: Would it be possible that Rajsamand would be the only district in India in which a place with the name of the district does not exist? After traversing long and narrow streets and asking passers-by, we reached #RajSamudra/#RajSamandJheel. 9 Ghevar Devi, who filled the foundation of this dam near Chowki Pal #Ghevarmata temple is built on the other side, and #Ambamata temple is built on the other side. One can see a glimpse of the great personality of Maharana Raj Singh in this huge lake built at a cost of about Rs 1.5 crore in 1676, exactly 100 years after the famous Battle of Haldighati in 1576. It is 2.82 kilometers (1.75 mi) wide, 6.4 kilometers (4.0 mi) long and 18 meters (59 ft) deep. It was built on the Gomti River, Kelva River and Tali River. It was built by Maharana Raj Singh as an atonement for the human killings he had committed during his life. The name of Maharana Raj Singh is immortal among the great heroes of Mewar, about whom we will know better in the upcoming posts. Coming here you feel like the sea. It was raining yesterday...everything was drenched...the clouds and the sea meeting exactly...we too are drenched...from outside...from within...it will definitely come from the heart...

Rajsamand Lake is a beautiful and peaceful spot — calm, clean, and far less crowded than other tourist places. The water is surprisingly clear, and you can even take a dip if you want. Sitting by the marble steps, watching the sunset, and feeling that breeze is pure peace. No noise, no chaos — just nature and serenity. A must-visit place if you’re tired of city rush and want some real calm..

Shrinathji Temple

Hindu temple
Sights & Landmarks
The Shrinathji Temple in Nathdwara, Rajasthan is a revered Hindu pilgrimage site dedicated to Shrinathji, a manifestation of Lord Krishna. The temple dates back to the 14th century and holds great cultural and spiritual significance. According to legend, the idol was brought from Vrindavan to protect it from destruction by Aurangzeb and miraculously stopped in Nathdwara. Visitors can witness scheduled rituals and viewing times at this popular temple.
ShreeNathji Temple is an old heritage-style temple with beautiful, classic architecture that reflects its ancient charm. Many parts of the temple still have that timeless, traditional look, which makes it a peaceful and spiritual place to visit. We also did some shopping nearby — the prices were quite reasonable. After our darshan, we tried the kheer, which cost only ₹20. It was thick, creamy, and absolutely delicious — a must-try for anyone who loves sweets! We wanted to explore more, but heavy rainfall started, so we had to cut our visit short. It was our first visit to ShreeNathji Temple, and we’ve attached some pictures to share a glimpse of the experience.

Ancient temple about 50 km from Udaipur . Very old temple situated in gullies hence lot of unclean atmosphere with chaotic temple timings . Not sure of timings it changes every day . Brokers bargain for sure and special Darshan but cheats . Powerful vibes felt and appreciated . Got to manage in better way. Car needs to be parked a km away , travel in auto and then walk for 500 meters in narrow lanes and unstable road with rubbles . Can see the big idol of shive near parking and The Krishna flute art . Goverdhan Giri Krishna is pretty nice

When you see Thakurji’s darshan, your heart feels peace that words can’t describe. The aarti and bhajans touch the soul, and the people around are so kind and helpful. Every visit feels like coming home to Shreenathji Himself. Truly, it’s not just a temple — it’s an experience of pure devotion and love. Jai Shree Nathji! 🙏

Dhebar Lake, also known as Jaisamand Lake, is a man-made lake located in Udaipur, India. The lake was built during the 17th century by constructing a dam and has since become an official Heritage Monument of India. It is one of the largest artificial lakes in the world and is situated amidst the Great Indian Thar Desert.
I had put this place on my Udaipur Itinerary and I am glad I did so. Was easily the most fun I had on the trip. Booked an entire boat for an hour all to myself. Mr. Shiv Puri, the boat operator was friendly and helpful. Explore the place for a whole day if you like! The lake is huge and there are historical monuments nearby. The sights of the small islands on the water are beautiful and you can even make stops.

This beautiful man made lake is the 2nd largest in Asia. Which provides drinking water to Udaipur though being about 50 kms from the city . Has been built between 1711-1730 by the ruler of the famous Mewar royal family, roughly 387 years ago. Also, I took this shot from a place which is popular by the name Roothi Rani ka Mahal initially know as “Hawa Mahal”.

The battle of Haldighati was fought here and from the narrow mountain pass to the river Banas in the plains of Khamnor. Today, only a little of it has been preserved. The battlefield spread over six kilometers from Khamnor to Balicha village is known as Haldighati. The museum to be built here at the government level could not be built till date due to corruption. The weapons related to Maharana Pratap and Chetak are safe in the Udaipur City Palace Museum. In Haldighati, private shopkeeping has been promoted in the name of museum. Tourists are deprived of seeing the original sites which are completely free.

This is the last spot where the second half of the battle of Haldighati was fought between Maharana Pratap and the Mughals. As a result, thousands of soldiers o on both sides were died and their blood flowed to such an extent that it formed a pool. At present it just a park. ASI should focus on this to build more interesting. Also it's not maintained well.

​The Maharana Pratap Museum, often called the Haldighati Museum, is a dedicated tribute to the life, valor, and indomitable spirit of the legendary Rajput ruler, Maharana Pratap. Located near the historic battlefield of Haldighati, the museum preserves the history of the epic 1576 battle against the Mughal forces. Its engaging exhibits feature an extensive collection of artifacts, weaponry, and historical documents from the Rajput era, along with detailed dioramas and life-size models that vividly recreate key moments from the Maharana's life and struggles. A central attraction is the impressive statue of Maharana Pratap mounted on his loyal horse, Chetak. The museum also offers multi-media and sound-and-light shows, providing an immersive educational experience that celebrates the enduring legacy and patriotism of the great king. Entry fees 100 per person including light and sound show.

The Maharana Pratap Museum is dedicated to the great king and his legacy. The entry ticket is ₹100, and the main attraction is the 3D show, where you walk through different rooms filled with props and scenes that narrate Maharana Pratap’s life and the Battle of Haldighati. The show runs for about 30 minutes, and overall you’ll need roughly an hour to see everything comfortably. It’s informative and quite immersive, especially if you enjoy history. But if you’re in a time crunch, this is one spot you can skip without missing too much.

Kumbhalgarh Fort

Fortress
Sights & Landmarks
Kumbhalgarh Fort, a 15th-century hilltop fortress located 84 kilometers north of Udaipur, is a UNESCO-listed site and the birthplace of Mewar's legendary king, Maharana Pratap. Surrounded by a massive 36km-long perimeter wall, the fort was built by Rana Kumbha and is considered the second most important citadel in the Mewar region.
I visited Kumbhalgarh Fort recently, and as someone from the Mewar lineage of Shishodia Rajput, it felt deeply personal. The fort’s massive walls and grand architecture are awe-inspiring, standing proud as a testament to our heritage. Walking through the gates, I felt connected to the bravery of Maharana Pratap and our ancestors. The views of the Aravalli hills are stunning, especially at sunset, and the temples inside add a spiritual touch. The guides were knowledgeable, sharing stories that brought history alive. Nearby stalls offered tasty local snacks we enjoyed.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ An Incredible Historical Experience at Kumbhalgarh Fort! Visiting Kumbhalgarh Fort was an absolutely amazing experience! The moment you enter, you can feel the royal and historical vibes of Rajasthan. The fort is incredibly well-maintained and full of fascinating architecture — massive gates, beautiful palaces, intricate carvings, and the breathtaking 36 km long wall, which is the second longest in the world after the Great Wall of China! The view from the top is simply spectacular — you can see the entire Aravalli range and the green valleys all around. It’s a perfect place for photography lovers and history enthusiasts alike. I also loved exploring the different temples inside the fort; each one has its own charm and story. The fort area is clean, the local guides are very informative, and the route to reach there is scenic with winding roads and hills. Visiting during sunset is highly recommended — the golden light on the fort looks magical! Overall, Kumbhalgarh Fort is a must-visit for anyone traveling in Rajasthan. It truly showcases the pride, courage, and grandeur of Rajput history. I would love to visit again! 📍 Highly recommended for history lovers, photographers, and anyone who enjoys exploring heritage sites.

Kumbhalgarh Fort is a majestic 15th-century fortress in the Aravalli Hills of Rajasthan, built by Rana Kumbha. As a UNESCO World Heritage Site, it is most famous for its 36-kilometer-long defensive wall, often called the "Great Wall of India," which is the second longest in the world. Perched 1,100 meters above sea level, its strategic location and rugged topography made it virtually impregnable, serving as a vital refuge for the Mewar rulers in times of war. Inside its walls, the fort complex includes over 360 ancient temples and the stunning Badal Mahal, or "Palace of Clouds," which offers a panoramic view of the surrounding landscape. It also holds deep sentimental value as the birthplace of the legendary warrior king, Maharana Pratap. As a fort it is mysterious, this fort cannot seen from ground, when you cross Halla Pol after few meters from there the fort is visible. Except Great Wall and Mahara Pratap birthplace, there is nothing. Museum is closed. Don't take guide, they will charge you 750 for 4 person and also provide some misinformation about museum. Entrance fee is 40 rupees for Indian and 600 for foreigners. Parking is infront of Hanuman Pol. All Historical Artifacts are kept in City Palace Udaipur. So, little bit disappointed.

Visiting Kumbhalgarh Fort with my family was an absolutely goosebumps moment! Standing before this massive World Heritage Site, surrounded by the Aravalli hills, you can instantly feel the power, pride and grandeur of Rajasthan’s history. The fort is truly majestic, built by Rana Kumbha in the 15th century, it’s one of the strongest and most beautiful hill forts in India. The sheer size of the walls stretching over 36 km, often called the “Great Wall of India” is inspiring. It’s hard to believe this was all built centuries ago without modern tools. As we climbed up through the gates and pathways, the views kept getting better. From the top, you get a breathtaking panoramic view of the surrounding hills and forests, it’s the kind of sight that gives you goosebumps and fills you with pride in India’s heritage. The fort’s architecture, temples and palaces inside are beautifully preserved, especially the Badal Mahal, which offers stunning views and a glimpse into royal life. Entry tickets are reasonably priced (₹50 for Indian visitors and ₹200 for foreigners) and there’s ample parking near the entrance. The fort also hosts a light and sound show in the evening, which we highly recommend if you want to experience the fort’s history come alive in a magical way. Overall, Kumbhalgarh Fort is not just a monument t’s an emotion. The scale, history and scenic beauty make it one of the most unforgettable places to visit in Rajasthan. A must-see for every traveler who loves heritage, architecture and the feeling of standing in the footsteps of history!

Kumbhalgarh Fort is a majestic 15th-century fortress in the Aravalli Hills of Rajasthan, built by Rana Kumbha. This fort has a majestic wall-spanning for the next 36 kilometers, also known as the great wall of India. The fort is a marvel and a wonder at the same time. Absolutely majestic, vast and amazing. Best time to visit-in the evening an hour before sunset.

It was fabulous. The fort is preserved really well. It makes you travel back in history as all the fort is still present except some part of it. The fort is very colorful and it has a very good vibe to it. I will recommend people to visit it in winters and the weather when fog is there cause it will just enhance the beauty of that place. It is a must visit place for tourists.
Ved K — Google review
Built in the 15th century by Rana Kumbha, Kumbhalgarh Fort is one of Rajasthan’s most magnificent and well-preserved hill forts. It’s surrounded by an incredible 35 km long wall, often called the Great Wall of India — the second longest continuous wall in the world after the Great Wall of China, and still remarkably intact. The fort’s design is ingenious — it’s visible only from around 200 meters away, blending perfectly into the surrounding Aravalli hills. The first gate is Halla Pol, and about half a kilometer ahead is Hanuman Pol, marked by an idol of Lord Hanuman. The fort first becomes visible halfway between these two gates. After entering Hanuman Pol, you’ll see the ticket window ahead — entry is ₹40 for Indian adults. From there, you proceed through the main gate, Ram Pol, which leads into the main complex. Inside Ram Pol, two paths diverge — the left path takes you uphill towards Badal Mahal, while the right path leads to the temples within the complex. It’s best to climb the fort first while you have energy and enthusiasm, and visit the temples on your way down. On the way up, you’ll pass through Bhairon Pol, Nimboo Pol, Chaugan Pol, Pagda Pol, and Ganesh Pol, before reaching Badal Mahal, which offers breathtaking panoramic views. It takes about 3 hours to comfortably explore the fort, enjoy the views, and take pictures. Spare some extra time if you wish to explore the surrounding temples, as they’re spread across the lower areas. Notable temples include Neelkanth Mahadev, Vedi Temple, Parshvanath Jain, and Ganesh Temple. I also went up to Bawan Devri, a very ancient Jain temple located a bit farther inside — totally worth it. From there, I climbed onto the fort wall and walked along it, which was an amazing and memorable experience. Kumbhalgarh is also the birthplace of Maharana Pratap, the great Rajput warrior. With its massive walls, scenic views, and historic charm, it’s truly a must-visit fort in Rajasthan.

Saheliyon ki Bari, a stunning garden in Udaipur, is renowned for its lush greenery, intricate marble art, and enchanting fountains. Built by the Maharana for the royal ladies of Mewar, it features four water pools, marble elephants, kiosks, and fountains. The garden also houses a museum displaying household items and pets of the residents.
Beautiful and peaceful place to visit in Udaipur. The fountains, marble pavilions, and lotus pools are truly mesmerizing. The garden is clean, well-maintained, and full of greenery that gives a calm and refreshing vibe. It’s a perfect spot for photography and to relax for a while away from the city noise. Gardens are huge in size, and you can even play many games when visiting with a big group of family or friends. The water fountains still work perfectly, adding charm to the atmosphere. A must-visit place for anyone coming to Udaipur.

Saheliyon Ki Bari is a beautiful and peaceful garden, perfect for nature lovers. The entry ticket is ₹30, and there is a common washroom available near the entrance, which is convenient for visitors. The garden has lush greenery, fountains, lotus ponds, marble structures, and an artificial water jharana, which make it a nice spot for a relaxing walk. The evening time is especially good for photography because of the soft natural light and calm atmosphere. However, if you expect a very large or grand garden, it may feel a bit smaller than expected. Still, the atmosphere, greenery, and fountain areas make it a pleasant place to visit. Overall, it's a good and peaceful garden to spend 20–30 minutes, especially if you enjoy nature and photography. Saheliyon Ki Bari was built in the 18th century by Maharana Sangram Singh II. According to history, it was created for the 48 maids (saheliyan) who came with the queen as part of her dowry. The king built this garden to give them a peaceful place to relax, spend time together, and enjoy the fountains. This garden was designed as a private retreat for the royal ladies, where they could walk, chat, and enjoy the sound of water fountains away from the palace duties. The fountains work purely on water pressure without any pumps, which shows the excellent engineering of that time. A beautiful, peaceful, and green garden with fountains and photo spots. Good for nature lovers, though slightly smaller than expectations. Worth a quick visit for its history and calm atmosphere

​Saheliyon ki Bari, or the "Garden of Maidens," was built between 1710 and 1734 AD by Maharana Sangram Singh II of Mewar. Its singular purpose was to provide a delightful and exclusive pleasure garden for the royal ladies and their maids of honour, offering a glimpse into a bygone, luxurious life. ​The garden's architectural marvel lies in its harmonious integration of Mughal and Rajasthani styles. It features lush, green lawns and a central lotus pool. The most distinctive elements are the white marble pavilions, or chhatris, which stand elegantly against the backdrop of the white walls. Water is the soul of this space. The garden is famed for its numerous fountains, which are supplied from the nearby Fateh Sagar Lake (and later merged into the Bari by Maharana Fateh Singh). These fountains operate without pumps, using a complex hydrostatic pressure system, a testament to 18th century's engineering. ​Ornamental details are delicate and abundant. Stone carved chhatris feature beautiful floral motifs and repetitive arches, as seen in the dark, richly sculpted archways and canopies. A whimsical fountain, adorned with carved mermaid like figures, stands as a charming focal point in the paved courtyard. Ultimately, Saheliyon ki Bari is a tranquil oasis. Its delicate balance of architecture, floral beds, and the soothing sound of perpetually flowing fountains makes it a beautiful memorial to the private leisure of the royal women of Udaipur.

Saheliyon ki bari - A huge and majestic garden located near the banks of Fateh sagar lake, was built by Maharana Sangram Sinh for the royal ladies. He presented this garden to his queen. The queen was accompanied by 48 maids in her wedding. To offer all of them pleasurable moments away from the political environment, this garden was made. This patterned garden used to be the popular relaxing spot of the royal ladies. It has many sections, fountains, lotus pool and marble elephants. Currently, the fountains are managey electronically. But in the old times, this was managed by the vacuum. The garden is very well maintained and full of greenery. There is a nominal entry fees. Must recommend everyone to visit.
Milan P — Google review
If you love history, beautiful landscapes, and unique architecture, Saheliyon Ki Bari is highly recommended. It’s a wonderful place to appreciate the artistry and thoughtfulness of the Maharana's gift to the royal ladies. Best Time to Visit: Go during the winter months (October to March) or the monsoon (July to September) when the greenery is at its most vibrant. Time Required: You can easily explore the entire garden and the small adjacent museum (which has some interesting artifacts) in 45 minutes to 1 hour. It's a quick, worthwhile stop. Timing: Try to visit in the early morning (opens at 9:00 AM) or late afternoon (around 5:00 PM) to avoid the midday heat and the biggest crowds. Location: It's conveniently located near Fateh Sagar Lake and Sukhadia Circle, making it easy to fit into your itinerary.

Amazing Gardens and fountains built over 200 years ago. Some of the fountains and sprinklers are in wrought iron and imported from Liverpool back then. Some marble fountains are actually marvel fountains with water moving through hollow legs or elephants and out their trunks or through hollow pillars and out the pergola. All of this is using gravity and there are no pumps to keep the water the moving - the water comes from the Fatehsagar lake which is 80 - 90 mts higher than the gardens and the height of the fountain therefore depends on the level of water in the lake. Amazing engineering.......

Visited this garden in Udaipur, entry ticket is ₹30 per person. It’s nicely maintained with clean toilets and even fresh drinking water available at the entry, which is great. The garden itself is good, but since I went during the daytime, the harsh sun made it difficult to enjoy fully. They definitely need more big trees for shade to make the experience more comfortable. The only parts I truly loved were the Savan Bhado and Bin Badal Barsat spots inside the garden - those were beautiful!

Saheliyon Ki Bari always offers an immense and refreshing experience! This was my second visit — the first time was in 2011 after our marriage. The garden is peaceful, calm, and beautifully maintained, with lush greenery, fountains, and charming pathways. It’s the perfect place for a relaxing stroll, quiet reflection, or photography, and it truly captures the serene charm of Udaipur. A must-visit for anyone seeking peace amidst nature and history. 🌿✨

Beautiful and peaceful temple with amazing architecture and a very calm atmosphere. The place feels truly spiritual, but the roads around it are very narrow, only one car can pass at a time, so it’s better to park your car near City Palace or anywhere outside the old city area. The stairs are quite high, so if you have leg or knee pain, it’s better to avoid climbing. Overall, a lovely temple to visit and take blessings.

Jagdish temple is one of the architecturally and artistically significant temples of North India. It was built by Maharana Jagat Singh-l in 1652 A.D. This temple represents Nagar style of temple architecture and has shikhar, garbh graha (sanctum sanctorum) and sabhamandap. The outer part of the temple is decorated with beautiful sculptures. An inscription placed therein gives detailed information about Guhil rulers and the temple. On all the four sides of this panchayatan type temple, small shrines for Surya, Shiva and Ganesha are located. Beautiful and peaceful temple with amazing architecture and a very calm atmosphere.

Very long queue both for tickets and entry. Online option is not easily found on the web. Some of the performances were good but some very average, specially the duet snake dance performers, they were both doing their own thing ,no co-ordination and appeared to be very casual. The group dances were good. Overall seemed a little like a tourist trap

Bagore ki haveli offers you 2 kinds of experiences, one is the rich history through its museum and the beautiful view and sunset that you can catch from it's jharokhaas and windows. And the other one is ofcourse the dharohar dance show that you cannot miss at any cost. Book the tickets beforehand and buy another ticket for your camera as it's worth it. I went there thrice, and each time it had something new to offer.

Bagore Ki Haveli is a beautifully maintained heritage haveli located near Gangaur Ghat on Lake Pichola. The entry ticket is ₹60, which makes it a very budget-friendly attraction. You can explore the entire haveli in about 30–45 minutes. Inside, you’ll see old Rajasthani rooms, colorful glasswork, jharokhas, traditional costumes, utensils, masks, turbans, and artwork, which show how people lived in the old Mewar period. It’s also a great place for photography, with beautiful courtyards and mirror work. If you want to watch the traditional folk dance and puppet show, there is a separate ticket for the Dharohar Cultural Show held in the evening. The folk dance, music, and puppet performance offer a wonderful glimpse into Rajasthan’s cultural traditions. Bagore Ki Haveli was built in the 18th century by Amar Chand Badwa, the prime minister of Mewar. Later, it was used by members of the royal family, including Maharana Shakti Singh of Bagore. The haveli has more than 100 rooms, courtyards, and beautifully carved balconies. After years of neglect, it was restored by the West Zone Cultural Centre, which turned it into a museum showcasing Mewar’s heritage. A nice, peaceful heritage spot with affordable entry, perfect for a short visit. Great for learning about old Rajasthani culture and also for enjoying the evening folk dance show.

I visited Bagore ki Haveli museum yesterday and it was brilliant. Previously a guest house and a government office, this is now converted into a cultural center and museum. Entry to the venue is ticketed and foreigner tickets cost INR150 and can be bought at the gates.

Heritage Place must once to visit ...... Locate at "old udaipur city" with very narrow streets, only way to visit place by "Auto" or must took service of "rental vehicle" to visit Entire Udaipur Places. Must book the advance tickets for "Night show" of local traditional folk dance, and must view this show. Folk Dance Show timings in 2 slots of 7 to 8 p.m and 8 to 9 p.m.. 200 seats in each Show.. 8-9 p.m specific introduce looking to the diwali 🎇 🪔. It's good to book tickets online in advance for any inconveniences...

A well maintained haveli. Museum has a nice collection of old and antique items. Entry ticket for museum is 60/- per person. They have a dance show in evening for which buying tickets in advance is good option.

If you want to witness the full culture of Udaipur, the intricacies, the preserved details, then visit this gem of a place. But pay attention for it is the sanctum sanctorum of the godman of Mewar, Thakur Amar Chand Badwa. Inside there are chambers dark, dusty, classy and machiavellian. Four Maharanas were outclassed, outstrategized, and out-aestheticised by one Pradhan who built a temple to himself and called it home - Bagore Ki Haveli.

City Palace is one of the most stunning heritage complexes in India. The moment you step inside, you feel the grandeur of Mewar royalty. The architecture is a beautiful blend of Rajasthani and Mughal styles, full of intricate carvings, mirrored walls, colourful windows, and vintage courtyards. The museum walk is long but worth every minute — it showcases royal weapons, paintings, royal living rooms, and breathtaking views of Lake Pichola. The palace is maintained very well and gives a true glimpse into Udaipur’s rich history. The best part is the panoramic view from the top — Lake Pichola, Jagmandir, and the entire old city look magical, especially in sunlight. Entry is a bit expensive, but the experience is truly unforgettable.

One of the most beautiful palace I have ever visited. It's very magnificent and well maintained. The museum has lot of information. The weapons used during those days, the paintings, dress and culture all are very well preserved. It's a must visit place. There are authorised guides at the entrance please hire one for 500 to get the detailed information about the palace. Do not exit from the exit gate which you will need to pay 50 more and have to take a boat ride which is way expensive instead exit from the entry gate where there are lot of shopping options. There are is also authentic Rajasthani Thali available inside the palace which is good and reasonable.

Ranakpur Jain Temple

Mentioned on 
18 lists 
Jain temple
Sights & Landmarks
Sacred & Religious Sites
The Ranakpur Jain Temple, located in Udaipur, is a 15th-century white-marble temple with grand columns, halls and cupolas adorned with intricate carvings of deities. The temple boasts stunning architecture and a rich history that makes it a must-visit destination for both tourists and the religiously-inclined. Visitors are allowed to take pictures inside the temple with a ticket purchase.
I recently visited the Ranakpur Jain Temple (Feb25), a place that had been on my bucket list for years — and it exceeded every expectation. This is, without a doubt, one of the most breathtaking places I have ever experienced in India. The moment you step inside, you are transported into a world of pure artistry and spiritual calm. The temple’s architecture is nothing short of miraculous — 1,444 intricately carved marble pillars, each with a unique design. You could spend hours wandering through the halls, admiring the flawless craftsmanship. The delicate detailing on the ceilings, domes, and walls is so intricate that it’s hard to believe it was all created centuries ago without modern tools. What impressed me most was the serenity. Despite the number of visitors, the temple felt peaceful and meditative. Sunlight filtering through the marble lattice work created an almost magical play of light and shadow, enhancing the sense of divine beauty. The audio guide added great value to my visit, offering not only historical insights but also explanations of the carvings and the core principles of Jainism. It made the entire experience even more meaningful. A quick tip — photography is allowed inside with a ticket, and it’s worth every rupee because every corner of this temple feels like a masterpiece. Some sacred areas are photo-restricted, which is understandable and respectful. Ranakpur is slightly off the main tourist trail, but that’s part of its charm. The scenic drive through the Aravalli hills only adds to the experience, and arriving here feels like uncovering a hidden gem. In short, this is not just a temple — it’s a living museum of devotion and artistry, and a must-visit for anyone exploring Rajasthan.

We visited Ranakpur Jain Temple recently, and it’s a stunning place! The intricate marble carvings and grand architecture are breathtaking, with every pillar telling a story. The peaceful vibe inside is perfect for reflection, and the surrounding greenery adds to the serene atmosphere. The priests were kind and shared fascinating details about the temple’s history, making the visit special. There’s a small canteen nearby with tasty, simple snacks we enjoyed. However, we faced an issue when a security lady denied us entry, assuming we were non-Indian just because we weren’t fluent in Hindi. It was frustrating but resolved after explaining. Despite this, Ranakpur’s beauty and spirituality are worth visiting.

Ranakpur Jain Derasar is truly one of the most magnificent temples in India and a must-visit for anyone exploring Rajasthan. Built in the 15th century under the patronage of Dharna Shah, the temple is dedicated to Bhagwan Adinath and stands as one of the finest examples of Jain architecture. The nearest railway station is Falna, about an hour’s drive away, making it quite accessible. The temple is famous for its 1,444 intricately carved marble pillars, each one unique — no two are the same. Photography inside the temple is allowed with a ₹100 ticket, and if you prefer not to carry your phone, there’s a locker facility for ₹10. However, I highly recommend carrying at least one phone or camera — the carvings and architecture are absolutely worth capturing. Women are required to cover their heads with a dupatta before entering; if you forget to bring one, the temple provides it, which is a thoughtful gesture. Most visitors only explore the main derasar, but make sure to wander around the entire complex — that’s where the true charm lies. There are also a few smaller derasars within the premises, and right outside, you’ll find the beautiful Sun Temple, which is worth a quick visit. The Bhojanshala serves simple yet delicious satvik food for around ₹100 per person, and it’s one of the best meals you’ll find. For those planning to stay overnight, the Dharamshala offers neat and clean rooms at about ₹500 per night, making it a great budget-friendly option. Overall, Ranakpur Jain Derasar offers peace, beauty, and spiritual grace — a perfect blend of devotion and artistry. A definite must-visit if you’re in Rajasthan!

Ranakpur Temple is an architectural gem tucked away in the Aravalli hills, surrounded by lush greenery and scenic views. Known for its spectacular marble work, it’s one of the most impressive heritage structures in Rajasthan and a must-visit for anyone interested in art, architecture, or history. The temple complex features over 1,400 intricately carved marble pillars, and remarkably, no two are the same. The attention to detail across the ceilings, domes, and corridors is simply incredible. Natural light filters in through the carved stone latticework, adding to the beauty and calm of the space. The layout is vast, with multiple interconnected halls, courtyards, and stairways — you can easily spend a few hours just soaking it all in. Do note that photography is only allowed after 12 PM, and the same applies to audio guides. Before noon, visitors are required to submit their mobile phones at the entry point. This is strictly enforced, so plan your visit accordingly. There is a small entry fee for tourists and an additional fee for photography. The temple also has a canteen offering simple vegetarian meals and refreshments. Parking is available, and the road leading to the site is scenic but slightly narrow and winding. Plan your visit after 12 PM if you want to take photos or use the audio guide. Avoid peak hours if you want a quieter experience. The temple complex is expansive — take your time to explore and look closely at the detailing.

Ranakpur Jain Temple is a hidden gem that feels like stepping into a stone‑carved prayer hall. Set against the rugged hills of Rajasthan’s Pali district, the white marble complex sprawls over 48,000 sq ft and boasts 1,444 exquisitely detailed pillars—each one a unique lattice of lotus‑petal , elephants. The beautiful carvings, illuminated by the sun, create a play of light and shadow that feels almost surreal. A short walk around the temple grounds offers panoramic views of the surrounding hills, making it a perfect spot for both spiritual reflection and photo‑ops. In short, Ranakpur is a masterpiece of devotion and craftsmanship.
Sanjay V — Google review
🌿 Ranakpur Jain Temple — A Marble Miracle in the Aravalli Hills Hidden amidst the quiet valleys between Udaipur and Mount Abu, the Ranakpur Jain Temple stands as one of India’s greatest testaments to devotion and craftsmanship. This 15th-century masterpiece, dedicated to Lord Adinath, the first Jain Tirthankara, is not just a temple — it’s a living work of art that blurs the line between the divine and the earthly. ✨ A Timeless Story of Faith and Artistry The story of Ranakpur Temple dates back to the 15th century, when a Jain businessman named Dharna Shah had a divine vision of a celestial chariot. Moved by his dream, he decided to create a temple that mirrored this heavenly vision on earth. With the support of Rana Kumbha, the ruler of Mewar (from whom the place derives its name), construction began. It took nearly 50 years and the labor of countless artisans to bring this vision to life. 🏛️ A Marvel of Marble and Light At first glance, Ranakpur looks less like a temple and more like a delicate sculpture that somehow expanded into a vast complex. The temple covers an area of 48,000 square feet, built entirely from gleaming white marble that changes color with the light of the day — from creamy gold at sunrise to soft ivory by sunset. The interior is a labyrinth of 1,444 marble pillars, each carved uniquely — no two are alike. Some bear intricate floral patterns, while others depict gods, dancers, and mythical figures. The detailing is so precise that even after five centuries, the carvings look as fresh as if chiseled yesterday. Stand in the main assembly hall, and you’ll notice something fascinating — no matter where you stand, the pillars never block your view of the main deity. It’s a subtle architectural marvel that reflects both mathematical genius and spiritual intent. Look up, and the ceiling seems alive — layered with concentric rings of lotus motifs, geometric designs, and figures so finely carved that they seem to float in marble. The light filtering through lattice windows adds a dreamlike aura to the hall, creating an atmosphere of tranquil divinity. ⸻ The temple follows the Jain principles of non-violence, purity, and peace, and visitors are gently reminded to maintain silence and remove their shoes before entering. Photography inside the temple is restricted — not just to protect the artwork but to encourage visitors to truly see with their eyes and hearts, not just their cameras. There’s a stillness here that makes time feel irrelevant. For many, Ranakpur is not just a monument; it’s a spiritual experience — a reminder of the divine potential in human creativity. ⸻ 📍 Exploring the Complex The main Chaumukha Temple is accompanied by smaller temples dedicated to Parshvanath, Neminath, and Surya (the Sun God). The Surya Temple, with its ornate carvings of the sun god riding his chariot, is particularly striking. Don’t miss the detailed carvings on the outer walls, which depict celestial beings, elephants, and mythical scenes — each corner of the temple rewards patient eyes. Spend time wandering slowly; the more you look, the more beauty reveals itself. ⸻ 🕰️ Best Time to Visit Ranakpur The best time to visit Ranakpur is between October and March, when the weather is pleasant, with temperatures ranging between 10°C and 25°C. The cool winter months allow you to explore comfortably and truly appreciate the marble’s glow under soft sunlight. Avoid the summer months (April–June), when the heat can be harsh, though mornings and evenings still retain some charm. Monsoon (July–September) paints the Aravallis lush green, making the journey to Ranakpur exceptionally scenic — a photographer’s delight. Temple timings: • Open from 7:00 AM to 7:00 PM daily. Pay fees, take your mobile for photography however large professional cameras have got some restrictions. Lockers available for your personal belongings.

Must place to visit for all Jain pilgrims. Food serve in Dharmshala was excellent. Nice example of excellent art & craft. Very positive vibes after entering.

This temple is really the highlight of the region. It’s a true hidden gem that photos cannot capture—the beauty and magnificence of the place go far beyond images. The energy is very intense; it took us a while to settle in and vibrate in its frequency. Please try to spend a long time here, at least a few hours—our visit was very short, and we somehow actually regret staying so little. This place is a buffer zone between the physical and the spectral realms, a true masterpiece and a sacred place in every sense.

Bodies of Water
Lake Pichola, an artificial freshwater lake in Udaipur, Rajasthan, offers boat rides and is home to several islands with palaces. Built in 1362, it was initially intended to meet the city's water and irrigation needs. The lake has four islands including Arsi villa & Jag Niwas, which houses a small palace and a sanctuary for bird watching.
It’s a very scenic and beautiful lake in Udaipur. One of the must visit places. It is near gangaur ghat and Karni Mata temple. You can also do boating but the cost is 800/- per person. It is near city palace for which the entry is too costly which is not worth it. You can come here to relax but avoid the boat ride and the palace visit, you’re not missing much. It can get crowded during the season. There are multiple shops nearby and chats also. Very peaceful at nights.

Sajjangarh Monsoon Palace, also known as Monsoon Mahal, is a stunning white marble palace perched on a high hill in Udaipur. Built by Maharana Sajjan Singh of the Mewar Dynasty, this palace offers breathtaking panoramic views of Fatehsagar Lake and the surrounding countryside.
I visited the Monsoon Palace in Udaipur yesterday and it was great. This is located around 20mins from the city centre and easily accessible using taxis. Entry for foreigners cost INR560 + parking for car on the top cost INR360 and must be bought at the gate. The mountain top location provides amazing views over the lakes and Udaipur which was one of the reasons for the visit. The fort palace is beautiful, well preserved but smaller compared to forts like Amer fort and also hosts a museum. It was a quiet and peaceful visit, highly recommended!
Sanka I — Google review
So I visited the Monsoon Palace recently, and honestly, it’s one of those places that’s more about the view than the palace itself. It’s located on a high hill a bit outside the main city, and once you reach the top, you can literally see all of Udaipur — the lakes, City Palace, and everything else. The view is amazing, especially around sunset or during monsoon when it’s cloudy. Getting there is a bit of a ride though. The road is quite steep and curvy, and it takes around 15–25 minutes to reach the top if you’re going by car or scooty. The entry fee is ₹170 per person, and they also charge ₹300 for cars and ₹70 for two-wheelers. There’s a cab service from the base too, around ₹120 per person if you don’t want to drive up yourself. Once you’re at the top, there’s a small parking area, and you have to walk for about 5 minutes to reach the palace. There’s a small café near the palace that sells basic snacks like samosas, puffs, tea, and cold drinks — nothing fancy but it’s good enough if you just want a quick bite or some water. The palace itself is okay-ish, not very grand or well-maintained, but that’s not really the main attraction. The views from up there totally steal the show. You can see the whole city spread out below — it’s especially beautiful during sunset. Overall, I’d say it’s worth going once, mainly for the views and the drive. Don’t expect a super fancy palace, but if you enjoy scenic spots, it’s a nice little trip.

Breathtaking Views & Royal Vibes – A Must Visit in Udaipur! Monsoon Palace (Sajjangarh Palace) is one of the best viewpoints in Udaipur. The drive up the hill is scenic, and once you reach the top, the panoramic view of the entire city, lakes, and Aravalli hills is absolutely stunning—especially during sunset. The sky turns golden, and the breeze makes the experience unforgettable. The palace itself has a charming old-world feel. It’s not heavily decorated inside, but the location and atmosphere make it worth the visit. The area is well maintained, and there are plenty of spots to sit, relax, and take pictures. Entry fees are reasonable, and there are basic facilities available. Parking is organized, but it can get crowded during peak hours, so arriving a little early is a good idea. Overall, Monsoon Palace is a perfect place for photography, romantic views, and enjoying Udaipur’s natural beauty. Highly recommended—especially during monsoon and sunset! 🌅🏰🌿

beautiful spot with one of the best sunset views in Udaipur. The drive up the hill is scenic, and once you reach the top, you get a breathtaking panoramic view of the city, lakes, and surrounding hills. It’s especially nice during or after monsoon when everything looks green and fresh. On the downside, there isn’t much to see inside the palace — it’s more about the view than the structure itself. The entry fee plus vehicle charge can feel a bit high, and the road uphill is narrow, so it’s better to go with a local driver. Also, there’s limited food or water available at the top, so carrying your own bottle is a good idea. Overall, it’s a great place for sunset lovers and photography, but go mainly for the view, not the palace interiors.

Breathtaking Views and Royal Charm Above the Aravallis! Our visit to Monsoon Palace (Sajjangarh Fort) was truly memorable! Perched high on a hilltop, the palace offers one of the best panoramic views of Udaipur city, Fateh Sagar Lake, and the surrounding Aravalli Hills. The palace itself has a simple yet elegant architecture that reflects royal charm and history. Though the interiors are minimal, the real highlight is the location and the spectacular scenery it offers in every direction. The ride to the top can be steep and narrow at places, but the view at the end makes it all worthwhile. There’s also a small café and a few viewing points where you can relax and enjoy the cool breeze. Entry tickets are reasonably priced, and parking is available near the base. A tip: Visit in the late afternoon to enjoy the sunset views. Overall, Monsoon Palace is a must-visit attraction in Udaipur for its serene atmosphere, stunning vistas, and a glimpse into royal history. A perfect spot for photographers, couples, family and anyone who loves nature and scenic views!

Named after Maharana Sajjan Singh, the palace was completed in 1884. It was initially planned as an ambitious nine-story astronomical observatory to track monsoon clouds, reflecting the Maharana's keen interest in science. ​ Perched atop Bansdara Hill, the white marble palace showcases a beautiful blend of Rajput and Mughal architecture. Its towering turrets, domed structures, and detailed craftsmanship create a majestic silhouette against the Aravalli skyline. ​ The interior features a large central courtyard and marble pillars that are intricately carved with exquisite floral and leaf motifs. Although historically used as a monsoon retreat and hunting lodge, the focus remains on its structural grandeur rather than elaborate ornamentation. ​ A key functional aspect of the palace is its ingenious rainwater harvesting system, designed to capture and store water underground. This sophisticated mechanism sustained the palace's needs during the dry season atop the hill. ​ Panoramic Viewing Experience The palace’s strategic elevation offers perhaps the most spectacular panoramic views of Udaipur, including Lake Pichola, Fateh Sagar Lake, and the surrounding countryside. It is globally famous for its breathtaking sunsets, which bathe the white structure in a golden glow.

Also a truly divine and peaceful place to visit. > The temple's architecture is stunning, and the surroundings are well-maintained and serene. > We are visited on a weekday, so there was hardly any crowd and no waiting time to enter. The atmosphere was very spiritual and calming. Everything was well organized, and the locals were helpful.

The icon is very beautiful. Carved over a thousand years ago, it seems to exude a unique aura. The architecture of the temple dates back to seventh century with renovations in eleventh and fifteenth century according to historical data. Surrounded by hills the town is pleasant to walk around.

Zanzari Waterfall

Nature & Parks
Waterfalls
A series of cascades on a wide, rocky riverbed, with pools for swimming, accessed via a short hike.
Had an amazing one-day picnic with friends at Zanjari Waterfall! 🌿💦 The place is absolutely beautiful, especially during the monsoon season — truly a must-visit. The waterfall looks stunning, but do stay away from getting too close to the water during monsoon as the flow is very strong and can be risky. We enjoyed some hot Maggi near the waterfall which made the experience even better. There were also camel rides nearby, which added a fun touch to the trip. You can also visit the Utkanteshwar Mahadev Temple, which is close by and worth seeing. One small tip: carry your own snacks and drinking water, as there are no major restaurants on the way to the waterfall. Overall, it was a wonderful day out in nature, and I’d highly recommend this spot for a short getaway with family or friends. 🌧️🌲

This location is undoubtedly good spot to explore during the monsoon season. The natural beauty is breathtaking, with lush greenery enveloping the entire area, offering a refreshing escape from city life. Do carry an ample supply of drinking water and food, as there are no shops or refreshment stalls available in the vicinity. The area is largely untouched and remote, which adds to its charm but also calls for basic preparation. Be prepared for a moderate trek of approximately 3-4 kilometers. The walk through nature is truly rejuvenating, though certain sections of the path can become quite slippery due to rain, so proper footwear is strongly recommended. A camel ride is available near the entry point and adds a unique, enjoyable element to the visit especially for families or those looking for something different.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️☆ (4/5) Visited Zanzari Waterfall during the rainy season and it was a beautiful experience 🌿💦 The walk to reach the waterfall is quite long, but if you don’t want to walk much, you can also take a camel ride – I paid ₹400 for 2 people. The place feels very refreshing and peaceful once you reach the falls. 👉 Best time to visit: Rainy season 👉 Things to keep in mind: Be ready for a bit of walking, carry water, and wear comfortable shoes.

Such beautiful view and this place is for those people who likes to track because you have to travel by walk approximately 2/2.5 km from vehicle parking and as per name waterfall was not so much big but i think this was a peaceful location to enjoy. Though ,the waterfall was very little, the view was amazing must visit place 💗
Nikunj T — Google review
Good place for weekend refreshment. Waterfall and dam is nearby. Can visited with 4wheel and 2wheel as well. From parking spot to waterfall need to walk atleast 2-3 km. In dry season or low rainfall, easily can walk towards waterfall. As it is a river only during monsoon or heavy rain, could be hard to reach waterfall due to water

"A beautiful and peaceful spot for nature lovers. Zanzari Waterfall offers scenic views, flowing water, and a calm vibe. Great place for a short trip or weekend getaway. Roads are decent, but best to visit in early morning or during monsoon for the best experience."
Akash V — Google review
A peaceful and scenic spot near Ahmedabad, perfect for a one-day getaway with friends or family. Best visited in monsoon or winter, but be cautious of slippery rocks and strong currents.
JIS H — Google review
A very peaceful and enjoyable place for one day trip, can spend the whole day in the nature then go there, just don’t go very near to the waterfall as there have been many accidents in the past where people have lost their lives. But if you stay safely then its a very good place to be at. Loved the vibe also you can get Maggie there as well. Village people will be there selling Maggie and tea. Avoid taking the camle ride coz it’s not that far from the parking lot.

As an important pilgrimage site for Jains, Taranga has weathered centuries, surviving invasions and natural calamities to stand as a testament to enduring faith and artistic excellence. Each carving tells a story - of Jain cosmology, of royal patronage, and of a culture that valued beauty as a path to the divine.

There is Dharamshala near the temple, it's good and the food is also good. Temple architecture is mesmerizing with huge pillars and a big Murti of God Ajithanth. One can go for derasar dwaar udgatan at 6:15am. You can go trekking to a nearby hill having 500 steps, small temple at top and watch sunrise and big rocks. Overall good experience

Honestly, I'm not into religion stuff but i kinda liked this temple. The experience to get there by car was so great because you can feel to really greens on the side of the rode. The temple situated between jungle and mountain.When you get there you can see the monkeys from the start,they are really friendly with everyone but you just need to feed them 🤣.

The best place to peacefully worship for Jains. It is not a picnic spot, no photos or videos allowed around the temple. Jains must have this temple on their bucket list. The receptionist wasn’t polite.

Tirupati Rushivan Adventure Park

Amusement park
Water & Amusement Parks
Amusement park with family-oriented rides, water slides & replicas of landmarks like the Taj Mahal.
Tirupati Rushivan, is a delightful destination for families and nature lovers. Known as one of the largest theme parks in Gujarat, it offers a unique blend of entertainment, adventure, and cultural experiences. The park is surrounded by lush greenery, making it a peaceful retreat from urban life. Tirupati Rushivan has a variety of attractions, including thrilling rides for kids and adults alike. The water park section is a favorite among visitors, especially during the summer. The park features replicas of famous monuments and structures from around the world, such as the Eiffel Tower and Taj Mahal. These provide a mix of fun and learning, especially for children. For those seeking adventure, there are options like ziplining, boating, and rope activities. These add a dash of excitement to the visit. Affordable entry tickets and activities. Suitable for all age groups. Clean and green environment. Ample parking space. Can get crowded on weekends and holidays. Tirupati Rushivan is a great choice for a day trip with family or friends. It combines fun, learning, and adventure, ensuring there’s something for everyone. Whether you’re looking to relax in nature, enjoy thrilling rides, or explore cultural replicas, this theme park delivers a memorable experience. Some areas might require better maintenance. Would recommend visiting during weekdays for a more peaceful experience! One more suggestion, keep sufficient cash. They don’t accept online payment inside the park for activities. They just denied.

Tirupati Rushivan was, in one word, a ‘fine’ experience. It is definitely a good pick for children, offering a variety of activities to keep them entertained. However, the afternoon heat makes it quite difficult for them to play comfortably, as the scorching sun can be overwhelming. The rides, unfortunately, felt too basic for adults while at the same time appearing somewhat risky for children. A more balanced selection of attractions would greatly improve the experience, catering to both age groups in a safer and more engaging manner. One of the highlights, however, was the beautiful display of bougainvillaea. The vibrant, colourful flowers added a charming touch to the surroundings, making for a delightful visual treat. On the downside, the washroom facilities were absolutely dreadful. This is an area that certainly needs urgent improvement to enhance visitors' overall comfort.

Had an amazing time here! The place is packed with thrilling activities and fun for all ages. The adventure park had various activities (Go Karting, Dash Car, Mary Go Round, Roller Coaster, Frizbee, Garden Area etc which is perfect for anyone looking for a bit of adrenaline. The staff were friendly and made sure we felt safe and confident during every activity. The water park was just as fantastic. Donot expect it to be as big as other dedicated Water parks but a descent amount of rides that made it easy to spend the whole day here. Everything was clean and well-maintained, and there were plenty of shaded areas to relax when we needed a break. Food options were good — lots of variety and pretty reasonably priced for a park. The Food service was kind of less good but the food was actually good. Overall, an unforgettable experience. Will suggest visiting once ! Just keep in mind that this place is CASH ONLY. (They have option of online payment but only upto 50% of the cost)

Dandi Kutir (Salt Mount) Museum

Mentioned on 
8 lists 
Museum
History Museums
Dandi Kutir Museum, also known as Salt Mount, is a large interactive museum that opened in January 2015. Shaped like a mound of salt, it tells the story of Mahatma Gandhi's life and teachings. The museum holds historical significance as it is dedicated to Gandhi's struggle in the Indian nationalist movement. Visitors can enter for a nominal fee and are taken on guided tours in groups.
Dandi Kutir (Salt Mount) in Gandhinagar is a truly unique and immersive experience that beautifully brings Mahatma Gandhi’s life and philosophy to life. The museum, shaped like a giant mound of salt, is both symbolic and visually striking. Inside, the use of multimedia, 3D visuals, and audio guides makes the journey through Gandhiji’s life—from his childhood to the Dandi March—engaging and deeply moving. It’s not just a history lesson, but a powerful reminder of simplicity, truth, and non-violence. The entire setup is modern, well-maintained, and perfect for all age groups. A must-visit if you’re in Gujarat and want to connect with India’s freedom struggle in an inspiring way.
Prateek R — Google review
An absolutely unforgettable and immersive experience! 🙏 The Dandi Kutir Museum is a modern marvel, uniquely shaped like a salt mound to honor the historic Dandi March. 🧂 Inside, the life and teachings of Mahatma Gandhi are brought to life using incredible technology like 3D holography, 360-degree shows, and audio guides. 🎧 It’s not just a museum; it’s an inspiring journey through India's freedom struggle that touches your heart. The entire place is exceptionally well-maintained and surrounded by beautiful gardens. A must-visit for all age groups to truly understand Gandhiji's legacy! 🇮🇳✨

Awesome, Fabulous In just ₹10/- got the experience of 3D visualization and Gandhi's History.. Amazing videos played and literally it's True India and high technology involved. Amazing work has been executed.. Dandi Kutir is a unique and inspiring museum shaped like a massive salt mound, symbolizing the historic Salt March led by Mahatma Gandhi. Located in Gandhinagar, it blends history with modern technology, using audio-visuals, 3D presentations, and interactive exhibits to narrate Gandhiji’s life journey—from his childhood to his role in India's freedom movement. The experience is immersive, informative, and emotionally moving. The architecture is striking, and the storytelling is powerful. A perfect place for students, history lovers, and anyone who wishes to understand the spirit of non-violence and truth. A must-visit gem in Gujarat.
Ankit S — Google review
Dandi Kutir in Gandhinagar, Gujarat, is a museum dedicated to Mahatma Gandhi and the Salt Satyagraha. While it's a well-intentioned tribute, I felt it tried too hard to cover everything about Gandhi's life, making it feel a bit overwhelming. The exhibits were informative, with interactive displays and life-size dioramas, but some areas seemed neglected, and the displays could be more engaging. The 51-foot-tall Gandhi statue and surrounding bronze statues are impressive, though. The museum's architecture, designed to resemble a village, is also noteworthy. Overall, it's worth visiting if you're in Gandhinagar, but don't expect a thoroughly curated experience. The grounds are nice, with a peaceful atmosphere, but some facilities could be better maintained.

The concept of the Dandi Kutir Museum is impressive, but the overall experience was disappointing. The ticket price felt too high for what was offered, and many interactive displays were not functioning properly. The staff seemed uninterested in guiding visitors, and the waiting time was longer than expected. The museum has potential, but it really needs better maintenance and visitor management to make the visit worthwhile.

Had an absolutely amazing time at Bliss Water Park! The rides were thrilling, the atmosphere was lively, and it was a perfect day out with friends and family.

I recently visited Bliss Water Park in Mehsana, and it was a day filled with both excitement and disappointment. The park itself is well-maintained and offers a good variety of rides. The wave pool is one of the major highlights — it’s clean, spacious, and gives you the real thrill of ocean waves. Another attraction that stood out was the Crazy River ride, which was total fun and perfect for families and friends looking for an exciting splash. However, my experience was ruined by the food. I had a meal from one of their food stalls, and it was a big letdown. The quality and hygiene seemed questionable. Unfortunately, just a few hours after eating, I started feeling uneasy and later suffered from food poisoning, which spoiled the rest of my trip and the following day as well. While the rides and water attractions are top-notch and worth the visit, the management seriously needs to improve the food quality and hygiene standards. I would recommend bringing your own food if possible or eating outside the park. Overall, Bliss Water Park is great for fun and adventure but fails when it comes to food safety.
Akash C — Google review
The park can easily house 2500 to 3000 people. We went there on a day which was a public holiday, but since there was long weekend, the number of people rhat arrived was less. It is a good water park with around 9-10 rides. Crazy river was one of the best rides. They have a separate children's area. Parking is free. We went there when there was an offer and got food inclusive at 900/-. 200/- was locker charge. 30/- was the charge of 1 photo(soft copy). It has around 9 to 10 big rides. You can easily do all of them without the express ticket. They allow it regular people and one express person. 8:1 ratio. So no real use of express ticket. Also in express ticket only a few Tower rides and crazy river is covered. Children will love the experience.

Had a fantastic time at the water park! The ticket price was totally worth it, especially with lunch included — the food was delicious, fresh, and way better than expected. What truly impressed me was their focus on safety and comfort. The security guards were actively monitoring the gents-only area, ensuring that families could enjoy the pool without any discomfort. There was a well-managed separation between the family zone and the gents’ section, all within the same pool, which made it comfortable and enjoyable for everyone. Highly recommend this place for a fun, safe, and well-organized day out with family! 🌊🍽️👍

Nice water activities but there are no lift to climb the high towers that makes you tired soon. Overall great water park in terms of safety, security and enjoyment. Too much rush on weekends so it’s better if u can visit on weekdays. Including food is also of good quality and great taste. We were unable to do all the rides due to rush and towers without lift to climb and timings of river is also very tough to catch, so if you wish to go through the river you need to plan accordingly and wait for some time.

Better experience than other waterpark, specially food is too good and free cool drinking water arrangements everywhere in water park. Best place to get best experience for rides and swimming. Credit goes to good management. Everything is best, one business idea is there of photography in wave pool. Few photographer take photos in camera and ask to take photos from studio which charged INR 30 per photos and it's mandatory to take all photos which is drawback with loosing one star, there should be option to choose photos from taken photos and pay for only choosen photos, everything else is best. 👌🏻

Bliss Aqua Waterpark is a great stop if you're heading towards Ahmedabad from Jodhpur it’s located around 10 km before Mehsana city, right off the highway. Just note that it’s on the opposite side, so you’ll need to take a U-turn about 200 meters ahead. The park has free parking, but the parking area is a bit far (around 200 meters from the entrance), so it’s better to drop your family at the gate first and then park the car. Entry opens at 10 AM. Tickets are available right at the main gate ₹899 for adults and ₹600 for kids below 4 feet. The best part? All tickets include coupons for a free unlimited lunch buffet. The food was decent we had puri, chana masala, rice, dal, and aamras. Just a heads-up, the dal is quite sweet (classic Gujarat style), but everything was fresh and filling. Now coming to the main attraction the rides. There are tons of options for both kids and adults. Many of the adult slides are designed for 2 people, a few for 3–4 people, and some are for solo riders. I’d definitely recommend visiting in a group of at least 2 to make the most of the multi-person slides. The slides are thrilling and on par with what you'd expect in big parks like Imagica. The wave pool is also quite good and adds to the fun.
