Standing here in Neemrana, I can’t help but feel the weight of history beneath my feet. 👉🏻 Built in 1464 by the lineage of the legendary Prithviraj Chauhan III, Neemrana Fort Palace marked the beginning of my exploration. From a royal residence abandoned in 1947 to converted into a luxury heritage hotel in 1991, Neemrana Fort Palace is an ideal model of preservation and reinvention. The palace gracefully bridges centuries—its medieval corridors decorated with ornate jharokhas and glass mosaics accentuating Rajasthan’s regal past and grandeur. 👉🏻 But what truly intrigues me is the hidden gem that lies nearby—a mysterious stepwell that plunges nine stories into the earth. Known as “Rani ki Baoli,” this architectural masterpiece holds secrets that span centuries. Local legends speak of ghosts and famine relief, adding layers of intrigue to its already fascinating history. 👉🏻 In all speculation, Neemrana Baori was a vital hub for trade, water management, and community life, strategically located along key trade routes in Rajasthan. It served as a rest stop for merchants and travellers to exchange goods and information while doubling as a water reservoir to sustain agriculture and settlements in the arid region. The rulers likely boosted their treasury by levying fees on traders utilising its facilities and nearby markets. Writing for Forbes India, I uncover the intriguing facets of Neemrana—a destination that offers a blend of history, architecture, and offbeat charm. It is a must-read for anyone looking to explore the lesser-known treasures of this quaint town, perfect for an adventurous getaway near Delhi. https://www.forbesindia.com/article/lifes/deserts-paradox-when-water-built-an-empire/95084/1 #neemranafort #neemranafortpalace #neemranabaori #rajasthandiaries #stepwellsofindia #incredibleindia #rajasthantourism #travelwithkrazybutterfly #sochstories
