Established by Rao Jodha, a Rathore chief, Jodhpur came into existence in 1459 A.D. and grew with grit on a land that was at one time referred to as a "marusthal," that literally means the land of the dead.
Rao Jodha built a magnificent fort atop a craggy hilltop on the advice of a holy sage and christened it as the "Chintamani Fort" that was later renamed as Mehrangarh.
The gateway to Thar - Jodhpur is the second largest city in Rajasthan, India. Jodhpur is a paradise for those interested in history. See monuments such as the Jaswant Thada, Umaid Bhawan Palace and the Mehrangarh Fort.
Shopping expeditions to local Jodhpur bazaars fill you with a sense of splendor as color, tradition and rustic charm inundate you while you pick up hand-crafted souvenirs on Sadar Bazaar and Giridkot tours.
