Also if you ever do visit Jaisalmer (which I highly recommend for its palaces and havelis and temples, as well as its UNESCO world Heritage sites) look into staying at the Suryagarh -- a one of its kind desert fortress that is also a hotel and one of the finest in India. In Bikaner (another sumptuous destination with dazzling architecture) I recommend the Lalgarh palace and in Jodhpur, a place recently in the news for the Jonas+Chopra Nuptials, I recommend the Umaid Bhawan Palace. All are fabulous oases of luxury in the chaotic beauty of Rajasthan.
Fun fact: The Jag Mandir island palace was a place of refuge for Shah Jahan, and it is while staying there that he was inspired to build the Taj Mahal. The cenotaphs of the Rajput rulers served as a source of inspiration as well, in addition to their palaces.
Mr. K loved your Rajasthan sojourn -- I do hope that you revisit the land and stay at the Aman Bagh and Aman i Khas, both absolutely splendid hotels by the Aman group -- they are very secluded and private with a unique flair. I recommend the pool villas at the Amanbagh by the way! And don't forget to stay at the Oberoi Vanyavilas in Ranthambore and the Taj Rambagh Palace in Jaipur. The Oberoi Rajvilas in Jaipur is also amazing. But no stay in Jaipur is complete without the Rambagh! Hope to see you there soon -- happy travels!
yep. Taj Rambagh and all the Oberoi hotels at Rajasthan planned - next year. I must stay at Aman also - I book travels on Expedia, and Aman don't have a presence on Expedia - so I never know where they are until its too late and I've already booked.
Mughal is actually the Farsi word for Mongol -- in reference to the ancestry of the Moghul/Mughal emperors -- they all had an epicanthic fold with the exception of the princes from Jahangir onwards -- because while they were originally of Mongolian descent from the great Khans of the Golden Horde, and as such were related to that Great conqueror Genghis Khan/Temujin, they later married into the Indo-Aryan royalty of NW India and in time started to look no different from the people that reside there even today -- that is, they looked like Jats or Khatris or Gujjars -- all Indo Aryan clans that look either Mediterranean(anywhere from the Bosphorus and the Aegean to the Amu Darya river) or Slavic.
Mughals in Indian actually named wrongly. Babur the first person who conquered India was not Mughal. He was from turkic dynasty and his ancestor was Amir Temur (famous as Temirlane).Babur was from Temurids dynasty. Babur was not directly connected to Chengiz Khan and also he followed Islam rather then Mongolians. He used to speak in uzbek language (turkic family) and later hindustani (urdu) language was founded based on uzbek language (in urdu there are quite enough words similar to uzbek).
@@uzempirebek WRONG. Babur was a Turco-Mongol, and had both Turkic and Mongolian ancestry, both of which are Mongoloid racially. He was indeed descended from Genghis Khan on his maternal side. Here is more information: "Babur was a descendant of Tamurlane on his father's side and Genghis Khan on his mother's. He inherited Ferghana, a valley in Uzbekistan, where he is still revered. The word Mughal is the Persian version of the word Mongol. He was actually Turco-Mongol, meaning he had Turkic and Mongol ancestry."
TBC1987 yes you are right and that’s why I wrote that he hadn’t direct connection to Chengiz Khan as by Islam maternal blood relation is not considered as generation so from paternal side he wasn’t mongolian but turkic
can we visit udaivillas to just explore and for photographs , not to stay there for one day, like it have cafe , restaurant, there ,so that we can visit there for half and hour
yes you can. when i was there, they had a guided tour of the resort I saw for a group visiting. most hotels, if you make a dinner or lunch reservation, can go in for a meal and then have a walk round...
Beautiful ..Rajesthan is a dream land... I love it😘😘
