Things to do in JodhpurHeritage

Jaswant Thada and royal cenotaphs

Jodhpur

A hauntingly beautiful white marble memorial built in 1899 for Maharaja Jaswant Singh II, Jaswant Thada sits on a rocky hill with the fort looming behind it and the blue city stretching away below. The marble is so finely carved it becomes translucent in sunlight, and the surrounding garden of cenotaphs is quiet, romantic, and one of the most underrated heritage sites in all of Rajasthan.

Pro tip from your tour advisor

This is one of the most photogenic locations in Jodhpur — the combination of white marble, blue city, and sandstone fort in a single frame is stunning. Visit around 4 PM for the best warm light.
