Two Top Places to Visit in Rajasthan


Two of the top places to visit in Rajasthan are undoubtedly Jodhpur and Ranthambore. If you collect information about Jodhpur tourism, you may come across this city being deemed as ‘sun city’ and ‘blue city’. An oasis amid a vast desert – this is the feel that you will experience once you land in the city of Jodhpur. The glory of the bygone era is well exhibited in the forts, palaces and other standing monuments here. What is the key attraction associated about Jodhpur Tourism? It is the Mehrangarh Fort. This fortification, located on a 150m high hill, was built in the year 1459 by the then chief of Rathore clan Rao Jodha. Within the premises of the fort you will come across numerous palaces, temples, not to mention museum and galleries. Umaid Bhawan Palace, Jaswant Thada, and Ghanta Ghar (Clock Tower) are other attractions of Jodhpur tourism. There is no dearth of hotels in Jodhpur; so is the abundance of Ranthambore hotels.

At 700 feet above the surrounding plain, the Ranthambore fort, founded in 944 by the Nagil Jats, is located within the Ranthambore National Park. For wildlife and photography enthusiasts, the Park is a paradise. You will come across numerous Ranthambore hotels in the park premises. Hotel Vinayak is one of the most preferred Ranthambore Hotels, located in the wildlife area; it is run by RTDC, a Rajasthan govt. venture. Ranthambore Forest Resort, Ranthambore Paradise, The Tiger Villa, Abrar Palace Wildlife Resort, Tiger Den Resort are few other Ranthambore hotels worth mentioning.
