Ancient Mandore lures you into its labyrinth of ancient
ruins with promises of an exciting holiday and a historic
Jodhpur adventure. Located at a distance of 9 kilometers
from the main Jodhpur city, Mandore served as the royal
capital of Marwar long before the establishment of Jodhpur.
Mandore became a Rathore bastion when a Rathore Rajput
wed a Pratihara princess. Thus Mandore was basically
a wedding present for the Rathore rulers of Marwar.
Tour the royal cenotaphs and exotic Mandore
gardens during your Mandore tours to Jodhpur with
Rajasthan Holiday.
The cenotaphs commemorating the memories of Rathore
kings and queens are constructed in red sandstone and
are set in the midst of lush lawns. The Mandore cenotaphs
are designed like typical Hindu temples replete with
spires and columns. Some of the cenotaphs are four stories
high. The people of Jodhpur refer to the royal Mandore
cenotaphs as dewals and the dewal dedicated to Maharaja
Ajit Singh is magnificent and attractive beyond description.
Tour the temple of "3 hundred million Gods,"
and see the colorfully painted figures of Hindu deities
and several other mythological figures. Adjacent to
this unique shrine lies the "Hall of Heroes,"
that is definitely worth visiting.
Walk along exquisitely landscaped garden trails as
you tour the extensive Mandore Gardens and get a birds
eye view of the natural Mandore panorama from the massive
rock terrace that crowns the lovely Mandore gardens.
Trek up the hill to the Mandore ruins and watch bright
peacocks frolicking around and enjoy your Mandore tours
with Rajasthan Holiday.
