Rajasthan Tour India

This diverse state is home to the rajputs, warrior clans claimed to originate from the sun, moon and fire, who have controlled this part of India for more than 1000 years. While they forget temporary alliances and marriages of convenience, pride and independence were always paramount with the result that much of their energy was spent squabbling among themselves and resultant weakness eventually led to their becoming vassals of the Mughal Empire. With the Mughal empire declining the Rajput gradually clawed back their independence – atleast until the British arrived. As the Raj inexorably expanded, most Rajput states allied with the British which allowed them to continue as independent states, subject to certain political and economic constraints.

Kota (Rajasthan) - Tour

An amazing, juxtaposition of majestic medieval age and modern industrialization, mainly the Hydro Electric Plant on the Chambal River and the Nuclear Power Plant has a few traces of its past still left. The fort overlooking the river Chambal is the foremost tourist attraction. It also houses the museum with a rich collection of art and artefacts and some elaborately painted chambers.

Earlier it was a part of Bundi state, but later it grew to be a bigger state. What retains the past glory are the untouched wealth of impressive forts, opulent palaces and temples dating back over several centuries. These temples were conquered by the Hada chieftain Rao Deva. It was at the time of the Mughal Emperor Jahangir that Rao Ratan Singh gifted this territory to his son Madho Singh. The Kota state reflects in the form of a beautiful collection of Stone Idols (murties) in the Raj Mahal, embellished with gold stained glass work on the walls, the silver mirror work on ceilings and the marvelous wall paintings. More... JHALAWAR The princely state of the Jhalas created in 1838 AD, after being separated from Kota by the British. It is best explored by foot within the city and a horse safari in the outskirts as Jhalawar boasts of rich natural wealth, with flora and fauna as active.

Since it is situated at the edge of the Malwa Plateau it has rocky but water laden verdant landscape unlike much of Rajasthan, with some exquisite pre-historic cave paintings, massive forts, thick woody forests, exotic wild life variety and a lush country side which has Red poppy fields, orange laden orchards making it look fascinating and colourful during winters.
