Rajasthan Villages - Neemrana

Once the capital of Prithviraj Chauhan, Neemrana is known for its grand fort that stands proudly on the Jaipur-Alwar-Delhi highway. This impressive structure was built by Raj Deo in 1464 AD and is one of the most famous heritage hotels in India today.

Neemrana always lived an obscure existence during the early medieval period. However, around the later part of the 15th century, the village suddenly shot into prominence after it made the capital of Prithviraj Chauhan's kingdom.

A popular weekend getaway for many families in Delhi and its surrounding areas, the Neemrana Fort was in a dilapidated state before it was restored with great care and converted into a fine heritage hotel. Complete with craft shops, recreational facilities and loads of worldly charm, the Neemrana hotel is an experience to remember.
