Jodhpur

Tales of valor and poignant romance epitomize Jodhpur. In the arid landscape of Thar Desert Jodhpur is built around an oasis. They say Rao Jodha, the founder of the city, evicted a hermit from the rocky ridge where the Mehrangarh fort stands now. Enraged hermit cursed that the land would be inflicted by drought and famine thenceforth. Hence the city became dry as desert. But with its impregnable forts, landscaped gardens, ornate havelis, Jodhpur is a romantic city. Don’t rush. Explore it with poise. The city would grow on you.
