It ranks among the largest forts in the world. With its 99 turrets rising from the desert sands like a mirage, the fort is a magical sight to behold.

Bada Bagh (“Huge Garden”), was constructed in the 16th century by Maharawal Jait Singh and his son Lunakaran. The garden, which offers stunning views and beautiful photographic moments—especially during sunrise and sunset—served as a memorial where the nobles and their families were cremated.

Patwon-Ki-Haveli, located in the main city, was built by a famous trader named Guman Chand and his sons. This massive five-storied yellow sandstone construction has five huge and intricately decorated suites. The large corridors and the decorated walls are excellent representations of the prevailing art form.
