JUST AS.....

"Just as the heavens should always be laden with rain,
So also, this stately building, the foundation of the Maharaja's longevity and wealth,
Be preserved from any kind of damage".


The generosity of this benediction, seemed matched by the beautiful flowing script on the plaque of the Fort, built in 1599.  

Someone once said that Rajasthan, was the one Indian State which truly expressed her childhood dreams and imaginings about India, because, here were the palaces, forts, turbans, camels, elephants, colours and desert heat. which evoked the thrill of an exotic culture.
