Places to Visit Around Jodhpur

Pali
Pali was a trade centre. In the 11th century AD,
Pali was ruled by the Guhilas of Mewar. The
Rathor dynsasty chronicles relate that Siyaji or
Sheoji, grandson of Chandra, the last Gahadvala
Rathore king of Kannauj, came to Marwar on a
pilgrimage to Dwarka in Gujarat, and on halting
at the town of Pali he and his followers settled
there to protect the Brahmin community from the
raids of marauding bands. His devali with the
inscription of 1273 AD was discovered 21 km north
west of Pali. Champavatas Rathores ruled Pali
until 1761 AD when it became part of Jodhpur
state.

Khimsar
Perched on the edge of the Great Thar Desert in
the heart of rural India lies this unique 16th
century fort that offers experience after
exhilarating experience. Hundreds of years of
history unfold as you glance at its
battle-scarred walls and stroll down its
ramparts. The Khimsar Dunes Village nestles
amidst sand dunes that seem to roll into
eternity. Fortunately, access is only by jeep,
camel or horseback. It is truly remote, rural and
romantic! Rustic in appearance, in consonance
with the surroundings, these luxurious huts have
been deliberately designed to be eco-friendly.
Come savour the tranquility of the Thar Desert in
all its majesty! The mini-lake that appears out
of nowhere seems to be just a mirage.

Phalodi
Located 141 km from Jodhpur District
headquarters, Phalodi is an old caravan center in
the Thar Desert. This town was a trading center
being on the land route from North Western India
into Central India. The area saw a lot of
movement in those times. Though various rulers
ruled this city, it was originally under the rule
of Rao Maldev Rathore of Jodhpur. Thereafter for
a short while this town came under the direct
rule of Emperor Akbar. But Akbar's policy of
appeasement saw the town in the hands of the
rulers of Jaisalmer.

Nagaur
The fort is of historical importance. The Rajput
rulers dominated Nagaur for a longer period.
Nagaur rulers were repeatedly forced to pay
tribute to the Sisodias of Chittor while their
lands were slowly annexed by the Rathors of
Jodhpur. In fact the case of Nagaur vividly
illustrates the turning back of the tide of
Islamic conquests in Rajputana in the 14th and
15th Centuries. Nagaur, north to Bikaner, and up
to the border of Punjab, was called Jangladesh in
ancient times.

Mandal , in the district of Jodhpur, in the state

Town. It is 113.9 km away from Jodhpur which is
the District Main City. Khichan is just 339 km
away from the Jaipur which is capital city of
Rajasthan. In the recent years, this particular
village is pulling a lot of native and foreign
tourists because it has established successfully
a tradition of feeding and taking care of wild
birds, mainly the Demoiselle cranes that migrate
to this particular region during the winter
season every year.
