A rustic canvass in blue, Jodhpur was the capital of Marwar - the mighty Rathore bastion.
The city was built by Rao Jodha in the year 1459 A.D. and the Rathore nerve center shifted from Mandore to this newly built city.
Jodhpur became a rich state during the course of Rao Jodha's reign. The main reason for the economic growth of this desert citadel was because it was located on a strategic trade route.
Located on the edge of the Thar Desert, Jodhpur is the second largest city in Rajasthan, India. Typically the medieval Rajputana bastion, Jodhpur is surrounded by a massive stonewall and large gates.
'Blue City' Jodhpur is famous for its vibrant festivals; spirited folk and age-old traditions that manifest themselves in the daily lives, attires and festivals.
