One of the largest forts in Rajasthan, it contains some of the finest palaces and preserves in its museum many priceless relics of Indian courtly life. Within the fort are several brilliantly crafted and decorated palaces. These include, Moti Mahal (Pearl Palace), Phool Mahal (Flower Palace), Sheesha Mahal (Mirror Palace), Sileh Khana and Daulat Khana.
The main attraction of Jaswant Thada is its aesthetically pleasing design. Featuring elaborate carvings and made from white marble, it is impressively beautiful. The main hall of the monument is supported by twelve pillars, with its walls adorned with intricate designs and sculptures. It also features a cenotaph that contains portraits of Maharaja Jaswant Singh II and his ancestors. The interiors of Jaswant Thada are just as impressive, with its beautiful marble walls and ceilings featuring intricate designs and sculptures. A large chandelier lights the main hall and has a large dome at the centre. The main hall is adorned with detailed depictions of gods, goddesses, and other figures.
The clock tower is a popular landmark in the old city. The vibrant Sardar Market is close to the tower, and narrow alleys lead from here to a bazaar selling vegetables, spices, Indian sweets, textiles, silver and handicrafts. It is a great place to ramble around at leisure.
Toorji Ka Jhalra built in 1740, generally called stepwell of Jodhpur, is a mind boggling design of stepwell, one of only a handful few residual structures delineating the conventional water the board system of Jodhpur. This structural ponder was built by the ruler associate of Maharaja Abhaya Singh, an indication of the well-established convention of the locale where illustrious ladies were responsible for directing general society water works. The plan and architecture enable spectators to appreciate the way of life of the prior ages who had utilized it in its prime, with the site filling in as the neighborhood watering opening for now is the right time. This 250-year-old architecture of Toorji ka Jhalra was made using the well-known rose-red sandstone found in Jodhpur.

The tour was very well organized. Mr. Pushpendra Singh picked us up promptly on time in the morning. We went first to the magnificent Mehrangarh where Pushpendra walked us around the historic attractions of the fort and added insightful commentary. We also went to Jaswant thada and covered the major attractions in the old city such as the clock tower and the stepwell. All in all, Mr. Pushpendra is a professional and knowledgeable guide who made our tour very enjoyable. highly recommended.

Pushpendra was kind enough to accommodate us in our need for a short tour--he even met us at the Umaid Heritage Art School where we were running a little behind. Pushpendra is calm and patient in both his demeanour and speech. He was very good at giving cultural context to understand the meaning of activities happening all around you. We did a quick tour of the clocktower, market, and hiked up into the old city to see the fort close up, beautifully painted murals and a sunset across the Blue City.

Pushpendra was really friendly and met us at our hotel. He even spoke German, which was a major plus point. He took us to all the major attractions. Merangah Fort using the elevator was definitely worth it during the scorching heat. Even took us to the desert rock which is definitely worth a visit. We visited 2 different local stores. First one was a handicraft/ clothes/ jewellery store, where even some locals were doing their shopping and we felt very comfortable. Everything had a fixed price and we bought a few things. Will definitely try to come back to Jodhpur for a longer stay.
Thanks for your precious time, we will looking forward to serve you more in the future. Have a good day
Vikram brings life to the many historic buildings to life and makes the day easy with intimate knowledge. The guards of monuments recognise him immediately and you get Fasttrack treatment to avoid queues. Importantly, in the 39C heat he also knows where to stop and chat with a breeze, a fan or some AC respite. Apart from the usual sights and monuments Vikram took us to the interesting old blue part of town where he organised entry to an original private house. We met the owners and enjoyed fantastic alternative views from the rooftops. His suggested whole seller of fabric and architectural salvage was refreshingly not a tourist rip off but a genuine commercial entity. He organised the top table at a great rooftop restaurant (Indique) with fabulous views of the illuminated fort. Apart from the great day we felt like we had a good friend by the end of the day. Authentic and highly recommended.
