UNESCO World Heritage Sites Rajasthan
Rajasthan, in India literally draws its name from the fact that it was once home to the Kings of the country. The royal legacy that the country saw in the Rajput and Mughal eras, led to the development of number of World Heritage Sites in Rajasthan. The numbers of historical monuments of the Royal Rajput and Mughal era are still present in the city. These historical monuments speak of the splendor and the grandeur of the ancient times. The ambience and aura of these sites carry a touch of the Royalty of the Mughal and Rajput rules of the country, which is almost impossible to be repeated today. As a result, the unmatched beauty and grandeur of these sites have made UNESCO to declare and pamper some of them as World Heritage Sites in Rajasthan. Apart from its rich and colorful culture, Rajasthan draws tourists in humongous numbers with its majestic forts and wildlife areas. Some of these places are so significant that these have made it to UNESCO’s World Heritage Site list.
