City Information
Placid waters lap against the ageless stone ramparts of Rohetgarh. Frescos on the tall gateway, brightly painted in the traditional style using typical motifs and color schemes herald your entry into this charmed world, bathed in the ambience of an unmistakable Rajasthani culture. Past centuries come to life at Rohet - the fortified desert home of the descendants of the 16th century Rathore of the Champawat clan. Generations of valiant noblemen have built this heritage home where, notwithstanding the inroads of modernity, aristocratic values are respected. The visitor of today experiences the famed warmth of courteous Rajput hospitality. Brilliantly plumed peacocks strut about, perching themselves under finely carved stone archways and the wind whispers through the neem tree groves and the bougainvilleas. Within these time-weathered walls lies an oasis of landscaped gardens and flowers in bloom - your oasis in the arid land of Marwar.
