History 

The history of Udaipur, Ajmer, and Pushkar is deeply rooted in Rajasthan’s royal and spiritual past.
Udaipur was founded in 1559 by Maharana Udai Singh II, the ruler of the Mewar dynasty, after Chittorgarh was attacked by the Mughals. Surrounded by the Aravalli Hills and dotted with beautiful lakes like Pichola, Fateh Sagar, and Udai Sagar, the city became the capital of Mewar. The grand City Palace, Jagdish Temple, and Lake Palace reflect the architectural brilliance of Rajput kings and their passion for art and culture.

Ajmer, on the other hand, was founded by Ajayraj Chauhan in the 7th century and became a center of power for the Chauhan dynasty. The city later gained prominence under Mughal rule when Emperor Akbar visited the Ajmer Sharif Dargah to seek blessings. Ajmer served as a symbol of religious harmony, attracting devotees from all corners of India.

Just 11 km away, Pushkar is among the oldest existing cities in India. According to legends, it was created by Lord Brahma himself, making it one of the few places in the world with a temple dedicated to Lord Brahma. Pushkar Lake, surrounded by 52 ghats, is considered sacred, and pilgrims from around the world visit to take a holy dip. Over time, Pushkar evolved into a vibrant pilgrimage town and a cultural hotspot, especially during the famous Pushkar Camel Fair.

Together, these three destinations narrate the story of Rajasthan’s royal pride, Mughal grace, and divine heritage — offering travelers a complete experience of the region’s history and spirituality.
