Bundi

Bundi, south east of Ajmer, was founded in 1342 by a Hara Chauhan Chief. It was the citadel of the Chauhans and Handas. This township is nestled in a narrow gorge. The Taragarh Fort (Star Fort), Shiv Mandir, palaces, cenotaphs, gardens, lakes, hunting resorts are all interesting spots to visit.

Bhim Burj is a large tower that is found in the Taragarh Fort. The 16th century cannon Garbh-Ganjam was originally housed here. There are several secret underground passages in this Fort.

The Rani Mahal has many wonderful miniatures and coloured glass work.
