Set at the edge of the THAR Desert, the imperial city of Jodhpur echoes
with tales of antiquity in the emptiness of the desert. Once the capital
of the Marwar state, it was founded in 1459 AD by Rao Jodha-chief of
the RATHORE clan of Rajputs who claimed to be descendants of Rama -
the epic hero of the RAMAYANA. The massive 15th century AD Mehrangarh
Fort looms on the top of a rocky hill, soaring 125 Mts. Above the plains.
The city is encompassed by a high wall -10 km long with 8 gates and
innumerable bastions.
