We stayed at Shree Pavapuri Tirth – Jeev Maitridham, which is a beautiful Jainism holistic place offering peace and spiritual calm. The surroundings are serene, and the management was very good, making our stay comfortable and pleasant. The art gallery and Gaushala there are also worth visiting, adding to the overall positive experience. A wonderful place for peace, reflection, and learning.

We recently went on a trek with my wife and two kids, accompanied by Mr. Jai Singh and a helper, and it turned out to be a wonderful experience. Both Mr. Jai Singh and his helper were extremely helpful and supportive throughout the journey, which made a big difference for us since this was our very first trek. The trail was a bit difficult for us, especially because our plan was quite spontaneous and we hadn’t done much preparation in advance. Still, with their guidance and encouragement, we managed well and truly enjoyed the adventure. My kids, in particular, had an awesome time exploring and experiencing the outdoors. Overall, it was a memorable trek full of fun and learning, and we are grateful to Mr. Jai Singh and his team for making it so smooth and enjoyable

I recently had the pleasure of visiting Mount Abu, and I must say it was an incredible experience. The hospitality of the locals is remarkable. The people of Mount Abu are warm, welcoming, and ever-ready to help. If you're looking for a serene and rejuvenating retreat, Mount Abu is the place to be. Whether you're a nature lover, history buff, or simply seeking peace of mind, Mount Abu has something to offer everyone. I highly recommend visiting Mount Abu and exploring its hidden gems. It's a destination that will leave you with unforgettable memories and a desire to return again.✨

This is one of the best place of rajasthan.... The sunset point of mount abu is heart touching...... At the top of mount abu feel like whole world is under us & we are top of the world..... Jain temples are so old.... Creation of temples is heart touching & uniquely... Awsome place guys...Excellent weather, wonderful ecosystem, great diversity of species. Getting tremendous human disturbance and pressure makes this place now a days more cumbersome than before.

As per my angle of view, it's quite peaceful place to get nearness with divine power, having historical value of more than 1000 years.. in radius of 100 mtrs. there are two other jinalays of Shree Supashvanath and Shree Shantinath. One can stay at new Tirth, just on the way of highway to 108 Mirpur Parshwanath Tirth "SHRI MUNISUWRAT SWAMI JAHAJ MANDIR", Only 2 km distance is there among both Tirth.

They say, Old is Gold. This is what it means. Old sculpture and beautiful temple carvings. It is said to be a very old temple. We were the only one in the temple when we made our visit during mid July. It was isolated. Blissful experience.

I want to go here again and again. 1300 years old and beautifully crafted temple. This place is Heaven. Just come live it and you’ll not feel to go back. Note: It is windy and its too much windy in the winters. No Bhojanshala Currently.

Last year we enjoyed an exciting and thrilling road trip.  In which Madhya Pradesh Rajasthan and Gujarat were our center of attraction.  On January 25, 2019 we had the fortune of visiting the Mirpur Jain Temple.  This temple is located on the state highway 27 in Sirohi Rajasthan. This ancient Jain temple belongs to the Shvetambara Sect of Jainism and is the first temple of white Marble in Rajasthan built in the ninth century.  It is situated in a very attractive location.  There is a very calm and intimate atmosphere surrounded by the hills.  We heard about the carving, workmanship and antiquity of this temple reached here and found the fact that it's really a masterpiece that's why it's mentioned in World and Encyclopaedia of Art. It's dedicated to twenty third Tirthankar Pasharvnath Ji and known as Bhidbhanjan. Its pillars and ceilings are richly carved with various geometrical and floral motifs. Dilwara temples are motivated and inspired by this temple. Shri Jayanandsuri Ji who was the 29th Pate and he ordered the Minister Samant in Samvat 821 to construct the temple and it was build and according to inscriptions the devkulikas in 1552 Samvat by various devotees. Earlier it was known as Jirapalli and Hameergarh. It was a famous Jain cultural and trade center. Initially it was built by Raja Sampreti according to Tirthmala Sangrah. Here the pilgrims accomodation, community kitchen and other facilities are available. It's managed by Kalyanji Anandji Trust. This is a best site for history buffs, wanderer, Nature lovers, arts and crafts lovers, and Architecture & heritage lovers.

I can say one of the best Derasarji of India. Carving is comparable with delvada temple. what a great location at foot step of Aravali mountains. You will feel Devin as you see this Derasarji only. What a lovely ambitious. Please spare some time and seat in Derasarji looking at parmatma and I am sure you will feel that you are in heaven. Adbhut parmatma in Murti. Very good pujari looking at derasar. Kept very clean. Above all a manager of tirth is gem of person. Very eager to serve yatriks. If you want to have some thing at bhojansala you have to tell them atleast an hour before and he will keep all things ready.i have not told them in advance but on reaching there I asked he that is it possible for him to prepare tea for us and we will have our own breakfast. He made it in five minutes and served us. This is too good for such a lonly place. I think every jains should go there and make this Derasarji lively.

The carving of elephants in the temple seems to be the best work of art of the times of Pallava. The art of construction shown in building up the sikhar here is different from that of even mt.Abu. This shrine has its special significance because of its unique solitary atmosphere, its art and its age. This temple is also mentioned in the “World And Encyclopedia of Art”. This temple was recently renovated. Today, Hamirpur is known as “Mirpur”. Would suggest not to miss this tirth while going sirohi just 4km inside from highway, such old and spiritual places must be visited atleast once and Know the history about the same❤️ Dharamshala and bhojanashala facilities available here. Sirohi is the nearby station for mirpur.

A huge great jain temple, with a great history

It is an ancient temple dedicated to Lord Shiva. It is believed to have been built by the Parmar rulers around the 10th century CE and later renovated by the Deora Rajputs. The temple is considered the kuldevi (family deity) temple of the Deora Rajput clan.

Peaceful Darshan at Swar Mahadev 🚩🙏🏻 Night view amazing very peaceful & old Mahadev temple in Sirohi

The historical temple of Lord Shiva is located in Sirohi. It is a temple located within the fort complex. The temple has a huge influence on the people of this district. There are various sub temples in the premises of the main temple. There is also a pond near by which looks great in the rainy season. This is situated in the foothills of Sinarva mountain, so the ambience is very good. it is one of the important tourist attraction of Sirohi town.

A historic temple surrounded by the walls, the temple trust claims a history of around 700 years. History buffs can easily spend 0.5-1 hour there. But unfortunately there is lack of proper waste management outside the entrance of the temple.

It's a historic temple at Sirohi, Rajasthan. It's a Royal Family temple. It's at least 300 to 500 years old. But local people and priests tells that its an ancient temple. They tells different and interesting stories about this temple. Good place around sirohi to see. There are groups of temples build in different time. There was lake also but now it's dead. Nice place if it maintained properly it could attract many people. Quite and peaceful.

Saraneshwar Mahadev Temple in village Sarneshwar district Sirohi, this temple Near National Highway and Sirohi city 4 K M distance. Saraneshwar Mahadev Temple A 15th-century temple of Lord Shiva is situated near the Dudhiya Talab in the Siranva hills. Every year a fair is organized here on Bhadrapada Shukla Baras, people from Sirohi and nearby areas come for darshan. The entire temple premises is filled with devotees. According to legend and former kings of Sirohi, Maharao of Sirohi defeated Alauddin Khilji in the war and saved this Shivling and installed it here in Sirohi. Today this place is known as Saraneshwar Mahadev. Water flows between the mountains behind this temple, which is known as Shukla Teej Talab, the temple is saved in the lap of the hills, which is surrounded by the hill like a fort, a very mythological temple, the temple The hill above is very beautiful.

This beautiful, ancient historically important SARNESHWAR JI TEMPLE is one of the imports tourist attraction of Sirohi town. The history of this temple is dated back to 1298 BC when king of Sirohi mahrao vijairaj ji defeated army of aaludin khilji & took control of the idol & installed the same here in sinarwa mountains.the ideol was brought from sidhpur gujrat after destroying the famous temple. Later the full temple & its border were built which we see now. Subsequently the temple became family temple of royal devda rajput of Sirohi. The temple is run & maintained by devesthan department, govt of rajasthan. Which is huge is size & is having beautiful carvings on walls. I think the whole temple premise deserve better upliftment & maintenance.

Historical Fort on top of Jalore City. Well worth the visit and climb up. Simple, pure, Historical, beauty and peace. Lots of temples and mosques to see and a LOT of history up there. There aren't any commercial aspects here at all so all completely natural and untouched.

A healthy visit.... As there were more then 2000 steps to climb up... It will take 40 min for a healthy and fit person to climb and 20 mins to come down . Initially if you are not a regular adventurer you will find it somehow scary in the beginning.. no people around but as u will reach at the top you will find many people there.... And the most beautiful thing i saw was that there are many mosques and temples together... you will get a complete view of jalore from the topmost point... Unfortunately it is shattered now mostly but if it could have been maintained then it would be as beautiful as the chhitorgarh fort.... It is the centre attraction of jalore,the granite city of india. (Old name - jabalipura) . This for is also called suvarnagiri and was ruled by Gurjar pratiharas in 8,9th century. By paramaras in 10th and in 1181 chauhans . Later allauddin Khilji captured it in 1311. Later the Mughals and restored to marwar in 1704 to independence. Jalore is also called cradle of Marwari house.

Beautiful structure and so powerful history of this fort, One and only fort in rajasthan where you will see amazing creation and well planed structure of fort which had been made by the kingdom 1000 years ago Must have to see this place take your full day for this place , here first you visit the tofkhana at the bottom( on the way to fort ) of the fort and than the fort with beautiful view in mountains and historical structure of its entry and buildings and creations you need hole day for this place . Here you see how indians live together there masjid , jain temple, hindu tample are there near by fort.

Swarngiri fort - pride of Jalore. Located on the hills of Arawali range. I'll not write any history. But will focus on present condition of the fort. To visit the fort, there is a stairway. As fort is on top of the hill, it is difficult to reach there. Fort and gates are in damaged condition. Water scarcity is one of the biggest problem here. On the way to fort there is only one pyau ( प्याऊ - place to drink water) at gate no 2. There are 2 - 3 bavadias, they are also in poor conditions. Now a days people visit the fort just for the religious sentiments as there are some Jain, Hindu and Muslim temple's.

Jalore fort is one of the greatest fort in the history. It is said that this fort gate is never broken by anyone ....in Hindi it is called Abhed Qila....Built at the time of Kanhad dev and also the love story related to Veeram Dev the son of Kanhad dev. But good to go in the rainy season or in the winter.... otherwise the scorching heat of jalore will terrorise you.....

First of all the owner and the safari guide Devraj ji is so humble and polite. He told us the history and interesting facts about the place and fun stories about animals. Due to his experience and understanding of leopard behavior, we saw the famous "chote kaan" leopard and the rani of Bedaa "Neelam" with her cubs. Both from distance of approx 20-30 meters. To our surprise, he arrange high tea for us at beautiful location in Jungle. Cherry on the cake, the man clicks really good pictures. Overall it was really great experience with Devraj ji.

Had an amazing safari experience! The team really went the extra mile to make sure we had the best possible sightings out in the wild, and it truly paid off. They provided free pickup and drop from the hotel (depending on location). We stayed at Cheetagarh Resort, which paired perfectly with the whole adventure. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a memorable safari trip!

Professionalism blended with hospitality. The safari was lovely and the approach of the staff was commendable. It was a great experience going to Jawai. We were fortunate to spot a leopard from a distance. The beauty of the Jawai dam was also remarkable. Overall an evening well spent with good memories. Special thanks to Mr Devraj who took us around and for sharing his knowledge about the place with us.

Great event and experience, climbing hillock by car at steep angle. We normally say, avoid do not drive, no climb further, we are scared, we do not go back home. But, But, But enjoyed lot. Very good experience and one must do in life for ever memory. Thanks to Dev. Who took us in jeep to top of hilluck which we were thinking impossible to climb. Dev got high experience and very expert...He filled confidence in us and with smile he took us you hillock. Nice,nice,nice.

Start to end - The experience was awesome, nice people, helpful attitude of everyone, nice support by Mr Devraj ji and Mr Bhanu Pratap ji, memorable experience, will repeat someday.

The person who booked our tour was polite and seemed very nice at the time of booking, but on the day of the safari, when we were facing a lot of problems, his attitude completely changed. He bluntly said, ‘If you want to do it, do it. If not, then don’t,’ and then disconnected our call and didn’t pick up again.

It was really nice, we did manage to see leopard, but we stayed at one place to see it. We also managed to see leopard drinking water, which is rare but it was almost dark night time. also jeep driver provided 2 good binoculars for watching.

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.

🌿 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.

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.

Ranakpur offers 2 types of safaris... One in the jungle, which needs permits etc and other around villages. Since there's no clarity online on government websites, people get fooled easily by private players. In the name of a jungle safari, they take tourists around villages and rocks. They need no permits and charge whatever they want. There are no fixed rates like in national parks or sanctuaries. Our safari started at 4 and we kept roaming around in the jeep for more than 1.5 hrs waiting for the sun to go down... Locals were roaming all around on foot with their cattle. We were shown crocodiles across the lake which looked nothing more than sticks from that distance. No sloth bears, hyenas, jackals etc as promised. Eventually we did see a leopard for 5 seconds when it was almost dark. All in all the experience was fine, but locals fooling people in the name of jungle safari is not ok. The government should have better booking systems in place and complete clarity. The photo shared is actually taken during the main safari.

If you are lucky you get see an animal in the wild. That's how all safari's are. Even if not, you will enjoy the drive. Well maintained open jeeps. Going up and down the rocks. Going inside the jungle, inbetween the trees. That's the fun part.

I have went to ranakpur many times on my birthday my father's birthdai and many more everytime when. I went to safari i see a lepord siting there is _mahindra bhaiya in rankpur who does this safari

My hotel arranged this tour for me at a cost of 6000 rupees. He said that I might even see a leopard in the wild. My tour started at 5.30am and my driver in his Gypsy Jeep arrived on time. We stopped on the way for some Chai tea which was lovely because at 5.30 in the morning it’s cold so wrap up warm!! My drivers driving skills were amazing and as soon as we got there we saw a family of wild boars. The 4x4 experience alone was worth the money as it was brilliant! The drivers work together to seek out these beautiful animals and show you them from a safe distance. Bingo….. We saw a leopard in the wild. My driver gave me his binoculars so I could see it roaming wild, it was the best experience. He also filmed it on my IPhone 15 pro which has an excellent camera and zoom so I have the video footage to share with my family and friends. I would 100 percent recommend this company to you and I hope like me you are lucky enough to see a leopard 🐆

It is the best jungle Safari I never had a Safari like this in my life I seen a hyna and a leopard live I mean they are in front of my eyes this is just awesome mean awesome the one and only best jungle Safari and the name is ranakpur jungle safari

Ganga Govrdhan Museum in Kumbhalgarh, Rajasthan, is a recently established cultural landmark that offers insight into the region's history, art, and tradition. Explore and get an insight into prehistoric era with a exquisite collection of weapons, sculptures, paintings, paper currency, more than 5000 Indian coins and lot more. There is entry ticket. There is limited parking space available at the front. Camera or phone is allowed inside the museum with some extra payment. Very clean and tidy and very well designed interiors. Must visit this place when you are exploring kumbhalgarh. The museum has collection of more than 5000 coins and paper currency from different periods of India history from independent kingdoms, princely states, British, Portuguese, other European empires, Mughals and Independent India. We can see many commemorative coins, medals, belt buckels and chapras. Wooden and metal sculptures of several Hindu Gods, puppets, locks, weights and measurements, paintings, decorative items made from animals horns, Porcelain vase and pots, snuff bottles, dolls & toys from different countries, tribal statues, Bronze and Copper art crafts, hundreds of types of sea shells are in display with description for knowledge seekers.

The Ganga Govardhan Museum in Kumbhalgarh is quite big…with an entry ticket priced at Rs.130/- per person……however, one surprising and disappointing thing was the extra charge for photography inside the museum……in today’s mobile era, such rules are rarely seen…but here, they charge Rs.250/- per device for photography….this price is almost double the price of an individual's entry ticket…...if you're visiting in a group…then every group member carrying a mobile phone has to buy a separate photography ticket….even if one person carries two mobile phones…he/she must pay for two tickets…. Inside the museum, there wasn’t anything exceptionally unique to justify these charges….most of the exhibits, such as cannons, bows, arrows, swords, spears, shields, costumes and other war-related items, can also be seen at the City Palace in Udaipur….additionally, the coin collection at the Lucknow Museum is more impressive….and the Haldighati Museum is much better organized and engaging….moreover, at these other museums, mobile photography is totally free…overall, the experience felt like a waste of both time and money….instead of spending here, it’s better to visit some other site in Kumbhalgarh that offers more value and a better experience….

This museum is good place to visit but enrty fee is quite higher.....

Amazing collection, but private, so expensive. 130 for one

A huge collection of historical and current coins & currency worldwide. Also huge collection of historical weapons. There is limited parking space available at the front. So during busy time we have to park somewhere else. Camera or phone is not allowed inside the museum. Very clean and tidy and very well designed interiors.

Nice collection of ancient coins. Coins collection was from 300 BC. Not only coins but it includes swords, dagger, lock and key, crockery, statue. Must visit this place when you are exploring kumbhalgarh.

The museum is very beautiful. Everything there is perfect, and it's worth visiting. Even the food is amazing.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 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.

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.

It’s also the birthplace of Maharana Pratap. I rode here with my group from Vadodara, around 400 km, and the journey was amazing. Visit during the rainy season for lush greenery and a misty vibe, almost like Nainital.❤️

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Biutifull wivig wark vray nice home stay in ramesh home

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

I loved the views, only the ropeway wait is too much during peak hours. We went around sunset and it was super crowded, had to wait for almost an hour for the ropeway and an hour to get the tickets!

Pushkar Camel Fair? After reading about and seeing those colourful pictures of the Pushkar Camel Fair on Google, I decided to pay extra to go to the 2024 Pushkar Camel Fair. We saw a lot of horses. We rode in a very "touristy" cart ride drawn by camels. But the colours and the fair-like atmosphere that were advertised - well, we did not experienced them.

What a great experience the Pushka camel fair. From camels to horses from grossly deformed cows to cobra snake charmers the Pushka camel fair has it all. Don’t leave it to the last few days as the camels run out …. literally .

There is no animal fair, only jhula and jhula. Animal fair ground is about 3 KM away

Amazing experience of the Rajasthani culture and folk dance. The main attraction of this fair was the camels and their caretakers. Usually they don't ask you for money for a picture, but some of can ask you about money or charge you for a picture. So be humble with the caretakers and animals while you're going to shoot them with camera and accessories. Also they're so friendly, so be polite

Nothing fair here. Worst place, this is animal abusement - camels and horses in such bad condition!! Don't support that, so don't ride them!!!

Serene lake with spiritual vibes all around.

Ancient temple of lord vishnu . Temple's architecture was in South Indian temple style mixed with mughal design. Temple is closed during afternoon time and opens after 3:00 pm. Museum is also there in the temple and visit charge is only 20rs per person. Mandala design on the floor looks more attractive.

Best spiritual place The temple is constructed South Indian style gopuram

The Rangji Temple in Pushkar is a hidden gem that feels like a slice of South India dropped into the heart of Rajasthan. It’s rare to find Dravidian architecture here in the north, with its soaring gopuram (gateway tower) drawing eyes from afar. Dedicated to Lord Vishnu’s avatar, Ranganatha, the temple was constructed in the 19th century by a Hyderabad nobleman, blending southern traditions with Mughal and Rajasthani styles. The temple’s vivid sculptures, delicate marble pillars, and intricate frescos bring stories to life, making it feel like a journey through myth and history. The sanctum, framed by lush greenery and a serene pond, invites calm reflection and quiet moments. Rangji Temple’s cross-cultural design and tranquil vibe make it an essential stop for travelers in Pushkar, offering an unexpectedly vibrant contrast to the surrounding desert landscape and a beautiful pause in an otherwise bustling pilgrimage town.

Fantastic place of worship of Lord Krishna. Superbly built with excellent architectural design.

Check out the ancient temple of Lord Vishnu! The mandala design on the floor is super attractive! #TempleArt

The Adhai Din Ka Jhonpra is an unforgettable stop in Ajmer that offers a powerful and visible lesson in Indian history, blending intricate stone carvings with monumental arches. It is absolutely a good place to visit and a high-rated architectural marvel.It was originally a Sanskrit College (Pathshala) and a Saraswati Temple commissioned by the Chauhan king Vigraharaja IV in the 12th century.It was later converted into a mosque by Qutb-ud-Din Aibak in the late 12th century, with subsequent beautification by Iltutmish.The courtyard and interior hall are supported by numerous ornately carved Hindu and Jain pillars.The façade features a grand screen wall of seven majestic arches with intricate Islamic calligraphy.

i visited this place which is about 1 km from the dargah. it’s more of a pilgrimage spot than a usual tourist place, so respect and silence are expected. the architecture is impressive and the environment is peaceful, but personally, i didn’t find it very engaging or interesting for a visit. it felt a bit quiet and not much to do here. if you’re looking for a calm spot to reflect, it might be okay, but for a fun or exciting visit, it might not be the best choice.

Historical place. History is known to all so not telling the same thing. But the place is not well maintained. Stairs are too high so persons having knee problem please avoid visiting this place.This place is too much congested also. This place is a walking distance from Ajmer railway station and Most famous Ajmer Sharif Darhga.

I recently visited Adhai Din Ka Jhopda in Ajmer. The place is definitely full of history and has beautiful old carvings that show how grand it must have been once. But honestly, the place isn’t very well maintained. The area around it looked a bit neglected, and there isn’t much information available for visitors to understand the history behind it. Still, standing there and seeing the ancient pillars and stone work was worth it — it really gives a glimpse of how rich our heritage is. I just wish the authorities took better care of this monument.

Adhai Din Ka Jhopra is a beautiful example of Indo-Islamic architecture in Ajmer. The ancient structure, with its detailed carvings and arches, tells stories of history and faith. Though partly in ruins, it still stands majestic and peaceful — a must-visit for history lovers.

Built in 1192 by Qutub-ud-din Aibak(general of Mohammad ghori) Later mihrabs added by sultan Iltutmish Calligraphy praises Allah and the prophet. “Adhai din” name represent shortness of human life and worldly teasure.

The dargah itself is truly peaceful and spiritually uplifting. You can feel a deep sense of devotion and positivity inside. However, the area around it really needs better management. The roads near the dargah are not very clean, and there are many vendors, auto drivers, and some khadims who try to overcharge or mislead visitors. If you’re visiting, it’s best to stay cautious, avoid giving money unnecessarily, and go directly for your prayers. Despite these issues, the dargah remains a sacred and must-visit place for those seeking peace and blessings.

Visitor reviews for the Khwaja Gharib Nawaz Dargah Sharif highlight a deeply impactful and spiritual experience for most, tempered by practical concerns regarding crowds and potential scams. The shrine of the Sufi saint Moinuddin Chishti is celebrated for its ability to foster peace and unity across all faiths, attracting millions of devotees from diverse backgrounds. Many visitors describe a profound sense of serenity and emotional release upon entering the main shrine, feeling instantly connected to the saint's message of compassion and selfless love for humanity. The atmosphere, filled with the fragrance of rose petals and the soft melodies of prayers and qawwalis, is often described as a "balm for the soul" where wishes made with a pure heart are believed to be fulfilled. However, the experience is not without its challenges. Common complaints involve heavy crowds, especially on weekends and during festivals, and the surrounding area's chaotic environment. Multiple reviews caution first-time visitors about pushy touts and individuals seeking donations, advising visitors to be vigilant about their belongings and, if possible, to arrange a trustworthy local guide or visit during less busy hours. Overall, the spiritual aura and historical significance of the Dargah are widely praised, earning it a top ranking among local attractions.

Civic sense is completely missing here. Auto rickshaws and e-rickshaws drop people right at the gate, creating extreme crowding and chaos. The risk of snatching and theft is very high, both inside and outside the premises. A so-called VIP entry is available if you spend ₹10,000 or more, which even allows you to spend an hour inside near the shrine. Sadly, everything feels commercialized—most people (especially the khadims) seem focused only on business, earning lakhs daily. This is my genuine experience. Honestly, I only come here because of my parents.

Holy place of India . Sufi Moinuddin chisty r.a. everyday more than 10k pilgrimage visited here . Need some improvement of road, dranrge, mostly cleanliness.

Visiting Ajmer Sharif Dargah is more than just a trip……it’s a journey of the heart. The moment you enter the lanes leading to the Dargah, life changes pace……shops selling flowers, chadars, and incense line the way……the sound of qawwalis and the calls of shopkeepers blend into a unique rhythm of devotion. The crowd is always there – from locals to travellers from across India and beyond. Some walk barefoot as a mark of respect……others come with families, carrying offerings wrapped in love. It can get very crowded, especially on Thursdays and during Urs festival, so patience and calm are key. Security checks are in place before you enter……and once inside, you’re surrounded by the fragrance of roses and incense. The white marble structure of the shrine glows softly……and the inner sanctum, where Khwaja Moinuddin Chishti rests, feels almost otherworldly. Facilities are basic but available – shoe stands, drinking water points, and restrooms nearby……though the area outside can feel congested. Inside, volunteers help manage the flow of devotees, and there’s a sense of shared respect regardless of background or religion. For me……standing there, with hands folded and eyes closed, all the noise faded……and all that remained was a deep, quiet prayer. You leave not just with memories, but with a strange lightness in the heart……and a reminder that kindness, humility, and love are the truest offerings we can give.

​A visit to the Dargah of Khwaja Gareeb Nawaz, also known as Ajmer Sharif, is an experience that transcends religion and touches the very core of your soul. From the moment you enter the bustling lanes leading to the shrine, you are enveloped in an atmosphere charged with devotion, fragrance, and a powerful sense of unity. ​The stunning Mughal architecture, with its magnificent silver doors and marble courtyard, is a sight to behold. But the true beauty of this place lies in the profound sense of peace that settles upon you as you step inside. Despite the thousands of pilgrims who visit daily, there is a serene and calming energy that makes you feel immediately welcome. People from all walks of life and every faith come here to seek blessings, their faces reflecting a shared hope and reverence. ​Listening to the soulful Qawwali performances is a truly mesmerizing experience that can transport you to another world. It’s in these moments you understand why this sacred shrine is a symbol of love, harmony, and humanity. ​A trip to Ajmer is incomplete without paying homage at this holy site. It’s a deeply moving and spiritually uplifting experience that leaves a lasting impression of peace and reminds you of the power of universal faith.

My visit to the Dargah was an incredibly disappointing experience. The spiritual moment I had hoped for was completely ruined by the surrounding chaos and relentless harassment. The approach to the Dargah is a gauntlet of shops and persistent beggars. Don't fall for the scams. The flowers and Chadar are overpriced—a basic Chadar and flower basket should not cost more than ₹100 and ₹200, respectively. You'll also be pressured by shops to pay for shoe-keeping, but you can easily avoid this by carrying your footwear or leaving it to the right of the entrance. Inside, so-called "guides" will demand money to show you around and perform a puja. They are simply hustlers. We were charged ₹200 for a rushed and unfulfilling tour of the complex. However, the worst part of the visit happens after you leave. You will be absolutely mobbed by beggars who will follow you relentlessly, using guilt to try and extort money from you. This aggressive behavior makes any spiritual or peaceful experience impossible. This place is not worth the effort and is completely skippable.

I visited Anasagar Lake in Ajmer during Holi, and it’s truly a beautiful and peaceful place. The surroundings of the lake are calm and scenic — especially during sunset, when the reflection of the sun on the water looks mesmerizing. You can also spot many different kinds of birds, which make the lake even more charming. The lake is located about 2 to 3 kilometers from Ajmer Railway Station, so it’s quite easy to reach. There are also food stalls and seating areas nearby where you can relax with friends or family. 👉 Overall, Anasagar Lake is a must-visit spot in Ajmer — especially during festivals like Holi, when the atmosphere becomes even more vibrant and colorful. 🌸💦

You will get to watch different migrant birds this time(winter). Mind refreshing. Boating is also there . Nice place to visit in weekend.

Ana Sagar Lake is a serene getaway with a refreshing breeze and beautiful surroundings. Ideal for photography, leisure walks, and peaceful moments. The historic touch and nearby temples add to its appeal. Truly a gem in the heart of Ajmer.🤌❤️

Good place. Visited Bahardari.. there's garden.. benches are there.. a little crowdy during morning and evening. Fishes are there in the lake.. you can feed them.

The lake is good. Other side where the bot Ride and cruse Ride is available that closing time is 6pm. So if you are going please go before this time.

Beautiful lake and views, but the experience felt bittersweet. I saw pooja items, plastic waste and sadly even dead fish stuck in plastic near the shore. It ruined the beauty and felt heartbreaking. We really need to be more responsible and protect our lakes and aquatic life.

Ana Sagar Lake is a beautiful and peaceful spot in Ajmer, perfect for enjoying sunsets and scenic views. Surrounded by marble pavilions and gardens, it's a popular place for both tourists and locals. While there’s a ticketed entry near the main garden area, many don’t know that you can get the same stunning view for free from the backside of the lake, near the local road and park area. It’s a great option if you’re on a budget or want to avoid crowds.

A great historical place to visit in Ajmer! The fort was originally built by Emperor Akbar and now houses a museum with some fascinating exhibits. We saw many ancient artifacts, including pottery believed to be around 5000 years old — truly impressive and a glimpse into early civilization. The museum is well-maintained, and the displays are informative. It’s a good spot for anyone interested in history and archaeology. Definitely worth a visit if you're in Ajmer!

It serves as a museum nowadays. You can enter with a ticket of 55/- per person. There are several statues and inscriptions from the buddha age, many weapons etc. are exhibited. The interior of each hall was made like a kaleidoscope structure which is amazing. The entire property is protected and maintained properly, so that it makes a perfect ambience for relaxation. I've spent about 2 hours in the quiet ambience of the museum. There is also a water cooler for drinking water.

Lovely place, It is the place where Akbar (Mughal Emperor) used to stay whenever he Visited Ajmer. Now, this place is converted into museum by the goverment. The fort is well maintained and contains ancient Weapons, Sculptures of various Gods, Clothes that people used to wear in ancient times, Coins of various Emperors,Mennequin of Akbar, Man Singh, Jahangir,Prithvi Raj etc. A must Visit place if you are planning a trip to Ajmer.

If you're planning a trip to Ajmer, don’t just stop at the Dargah — take a detour into the hills and discover Taragarh Fort, one of India’s oldest and most mysterious hill forts. I visited last weekend, and trust me — the panoramic views, ancient ruins, and eerie silence of the fort whisper stories of forgotten battles and royal pride. There’s something magical about walking through centuries-old gates with nothing but the wind and curiosity. Whether you're a history buff, a peace-seeker, or a traveler with a lens, Taragarh will surprise you in ways you didn’t expect. A small but unique Fort !! I believe will not take more than 30-40 minutes to explore all fort . Nearby Mittal Mall , 1.5 KM Dargah and 2 KM Adhai din ka Jhhopra which I covered . Ticket Charge - 52₹ / person

If you are visiting Ajmer, this place is a must visit. 1-1.5 km from Ajmer station, nice approach road, parking place is also there, you will get to many a things of Akbar’s era. . It was once the residence of Prince Salīm, the son of the Emperor Akbar, and presently houses a collection of Mughal and Rajput armor and sculpture. Construction of this had been commissioned by Akbar in 1570

Located in Akbari Fort, the Ajmer Fort Museum offers a fascinating glimpse into Rajput and Mughal history. Built by Emperor Akbar, the fort now displays ancient weapons, coins, sculptures, and paintings from the Gupta to Mughal eras. It's a quiet, well-maintained spot perfect for history lovers visiting Ajmer.

Fort with a museum inside it showing old historical monuments,idols and weapons. Entry ticket Rs.55

A beautiful and peaceful place to visit, rich in history and spiritual significance. The temple premises are very well maintained—neat, clean, and organized. The intricate architecture and carvings are truly worth seeing. However, please note that the stairs are quite steep and may be challenging for elderly visitors and young children. It’s advisable to take the lift if needed, as it makes access much easier and more comfortable. Overall, a must-visit spot in Ajmer for those interested in heritage and spirituality.

A truly divine and mesmerizing place! Soni Ji Ki Nasiya is not just a temple—it’s a masterpiece of art, devotion, and history. The golden interiors, detailed carvings, and peaceful atmosphere make it a must-visit spot in Ajmer. The craftsmanship inside is breathtaking, and the calmness around the premises fills your heart with positivity. Perfect for anyone who loves architecture, spirituality, and serenity. Don’t miss this hidden gem—it’s a place where faith meets beauty!

A very beautiful piece of architecture with great pachchikari painting art. Glass used in plenty.. golden colour structure. Superb attractive idols of Jain Tirthankar. Special attention to cleaning and entry according to principal of Jainism. Total spiritual atmosphere with cal

Soni Ji Ki Nasiyan, also known as the Ajmer Jain Temple or "Lal Mandir," is a famous Jain temple in Ajmer. It is dedicated to Lord Rishabhdev, the first Jain Tirthankara. The main attraction here is the Swarna Nagari or "City of Gold," a hall with golden models showing scenes from Jain stories and cosmology. Its beautiful red sandstone design and golden artwork make it a special place for both devotees and visitors.

It was a very disappointing experience. Though the craftsmanship and golden interiors are undeniably beautiful and worth admiration, the overall management is quite poor. Entry tickets are ₹30, and ₹50 if you choose to use the lift, as the stairs are extremely steep and uncomfortable for elders. Sadly, the sanctity of this Jain temple/museum seems compromised — people are allowed in casually for personal gain, and many visitors have vandalised the walls, which is truly upsetting to see. As Jains, it felt disheartening to witness such disregard for this sacred place. There is also no proper maintenance or cleanliness, and parking around the area is extremely difficult, adding to the frustration. Such a heritage site truly deserves better care and respect.

Soni Ji Ki Nasiya Jain Temple, located in Ajmer, is an absolute marvel and a true testament to the dedication and artistic vision of its founder, Rai Bahadur Seth Moolchand Soni. From the moment you approach the main building, the vibrant red sandstone facade, intricately carved with ornate patterns and delicate archways, hints at the treasure within. ​The real showstopper, however, is the "Swarna Nagri," or "City of Gold," a stunning diorama that took decades to create. The painstaking attention to detail is evident in every piece, from the miniature figures of Tirthankara Rishabhdev to the vast, golden recreation of the universe as described in Jain cosmology. Each tiny figure, gilded structure, and delicate adornment is a masterpiece in its own right, showcasing a level of craftsmanship that is simply breathtaking. The golden swan-shaped swings and the majestic chandeliers hanging from the ceiling add to the opulence, making you feel as though you've stepped into a heavenly realm. ​This temple is more than just a place of worship; it's a living museum of devotion and art. The founder's vision to depict the Jain philosophy and cosmology in such a grand and tangible way is truly remarkable. It's a must-visit for anyone with an appreciation for intricate artistry, religious history, and a founder's profound legacy.

Very historic place. There's city of gold from ancient times. It is from hain dharma.

Riding my adventure bike to Sambhar Salt Lake was an incredible experience! The wide open salt flats felt like riding on another planet, with endless horizons and breathtaking sunsets. The off-road trails, dusty paths, and changing terrain made the ride thrilling, while the peaceful lake view added a sense of calm. A perfect spot for bikers who love adventure, photography, and raw nature. Highly recommend carrying water and essentials, as the place is remote—but the ride is absolutely worth it!

Visiting Sambhar Salt Lake, India’s largest inland saltwater lake, was an unforgettable experience. The moment I reached the lake, the vast white expanse of salt flats stretching till the horizon felt almost like entering another world. It is one of those rare places where nature, industry, and history exist together in complete harmony. What impressed me first was the sheer scale of the lake. It is amazingly wide, and the reflective surface creates a stunning mirror-like effect, especially during sunrise and sunset. Watching the soft orange light spread across the salt beds felt like witnessing a natural painting come alive. Many travelers call this place “Rajasthan’s mini-Rann of Kutch,” and after seeing it myself, I truly understand why. The beauty of Sambhar isn’t only visual — it also carries historical and cultural depth. This lake has been mentioned even in ancient texts, and the salt production here has been happening for centuries. Seeing the traditional salt pans, the evaporation process, and workers collecting salt by hand gave me a real sense of how valuable this region has always been. The nearby Shakambhari Devi Temple adds a spiritual charm to the journey. The peaceful surroundings and the calm environment make it a soothing spot to rest for a while. The temple is dedicated to Goddess Shakambhari, who is believed to have blessed this region with the lake. Another highlight of my visit was the rich birdlife. During the migratory season, you can see thousands of flamingos and other birds. Even if you are not a birdwatcher, the sight of pink flamingos walking gracefully in the shallow water is simply mesmerizing. The lake is also a famous location for photography. Whether it is the salt workers, the salt trains, the endless white landscape, or the dramatic sky, every frame looks like it belongs in a travel magazine. I found it to be one of the best places to capture unique and peaceful landscape shots. Overall, Sambhar Salt Lake is a beautiful and unique destination. It is perfect for nature lovers, photographers, history enthusiasts, or anyone who wants to experience something beyond typical tourist spots. Its raw beauty, cultural heritage, and serene environment make the visit totally worth it. I would highly recommend this place to anyone planning a trip around Rajasthan. It is truly a gem that offers a blend of natural wonder and quiet charm — a place that stays in your memory long after you leave.

Amazing salt lake . You will see amazing birds and flamingos if u are lucky . Don't bother them as they come to migrate so they need some privacy . Salt lake looks like ice lake.

The sambhar salt lake, India's largest inland salt water lake.very popular for video and photo shoot many of the Bollywood movie and songs shoot here.it is home of many migratery birds but last year many of the birds die due to some viruse spread over the lake it has been designated to Ramsar Wetland site.
