Are Luxury Homestays in Jodhpur on Your Mind?

Jodhpur is the second-biggest city in Rajasthan, on the western side of the capital, Jaipur. It is also known as the Sun City because of its perennial sunny weather and sometimes as the Blue City because most houses around the Mehrangarh Fort are painted blue.

The desert city is a popular tourist destination for its palaces, forts, temples, and age-old culture and traditions, including folk dance and musical performances held in the evenings. Jodhpur also attracts Polo enthusiasts who visit the city to participate in equestrian events. Because of its popularity, there are a host of luxury homestays in Jodhpur. Read on to make an informed decision.

Some Jodhpur attractions

Mehrangarh Fort: This historic fort sits on a hill 125 metres above Jodhpur's skyline and is full of history and legends. Its second gate still bears the marks of cannonball attacks by the armies of Jaipur.

Umaid Bhawan Palace: Maharaja Umaid Singh built it in 1929 using sandstone and marble to counter the famine of the time. It is recognised as one of the largest private homes in the world.

Jaswant Thada:This memorial, built at the end of the 19th century, is a tribute to Jaswant Singh, who ruled Jodhpur. It has a museum displaying portraits of Marwar rulers and informative didactics.

Ghanta Ghar: It was built by Maharaja Sardar Singh, from whom the adjacent famous Sardar market takes its name. The tower serves as the start/end point of the heritage walk through the city.

Mandore:This area, located north of Jodhpur, has cenotaphs of former Jodhpur rulers, a museum, a temple, and an art gallery.
