  • Through Thrones and Jharokhas: Journey into Royal Rajasthan

By Nandani Sharma

When you arrive in Rajasthan, you’re suddenly somewhere between history and dream. Marbel corridors that echo with footsteps long gone. Every fort, every haveli, and every Jharokhas has a story to tell. This isn’t just travel, it’s time travel – into the world of royal bloodlines, battlefield legends, courtly romance, and enduring pride.

Not Just Monuments – Living Legends

Rajasthan’s royal past doesn’t sleep behind velvet rope. It’s alive in festivals, customs, and the very way people carry themselves. Some places are still homes to the descendants of Maharajas. Some are now heritage hotels. But there are stories everywhere.

Udaipur: Romancing still waters

  • Visit the City Palace complex – a breathtaking blend of Rajasthani and Mughal architecture
  • Stay at the Lake Palace, once a royal summer retreat, now one of the most luxurious hotels in the world
  • Watch the light show narrating the history of Mewar
  • Explore the nearby Bagore Ki Haveli, full of royal artefacts and folk performances
