Jodhpur (Arrival)Upon your arrival in Jodhpur, check into the hotel. Jodhpur is a city in the Thar Desert of the northwest Indian state of Rajasthan. Its 15th-century Mehrangarh Fort is a former palace that’s now a museum, displaying weapons, paintings and elaborate royal palanquins (sedan chairs). Set on on a rocky outcrop, the fort overlooks the walled city, where many buildings are painted the city’s iconic shade of blue. The magnificent and formidable Mehrangarh Fort dominates the sky line of the city. Built entirely of red sandstones, the fort is perched atop of a hill. Standing as a testimony to various battles and bloodshed, the strong walls of the fort seem to have many secrets buried in. The fort has palatial period rooms, extensive courtyards and alluring latticed windows. Jodhpur is equally popular for its local markets.
