Welcome to Kanak Valley, a world of temples, chattris
and cenotaphs interspersed with watercourses, ponds,
dense greens and marble pavilions with brightly colored
frescoes depicting Krishna lilas.
All this and more stand in bright contrast to the seer
Aravalli ranges known for their yellow craggy rock surfaces.
Mountain brooks, hill streams and lush greens create
a wonder oasis in the midst of a barren land. In fact
centuries ago when Maharaja Sawai Jai Singh happened
upon this paradise he was so enchanted that he christened
it as Kanak Vrindavan i.e. a land that was just like
the legendary Vrindavan of Lord Krishna.
The Kanak Valley in Jaipur lies at a little distance
from the Amber Fort and is the wonder world that is
nourished with the River Dharbawati that has now been
reduced to a hill lake.
The Govind Deoji Temple and the Natwarji temple are
the two most sacred shrines located in the Kanak Valley
in Jaipur. The people of Jaipur consider the Kanak Valley
so sacred that even today the Gangaur and other religious
processions stopover at the Kanak Valley before going
further.
There are several royal cenotaphs in the Kanak Valley
that are nothing short of architectural wonders with
exquisite jail designs, intricate lattice work and fascinating
marble friezes.
