Neemrana
Built
since 1464 AD, Neemrana is India's oldest heritage
resort. It is also Rajasthan's closest palace from New Delhi,
situated at 122 kms. on the Delhi-Jaipur highway - only 100 kms from
Delhi's international airport. Sited on a majestic plateau,
concealed in a horseshoe formation of the billion-year-old Aravalli
ranges, Neemrana became the third capital of the descendants of
Prithviraj Chauhan III, who was killed in battle by Mohammad Ghori
in 1192 AD. This picturesque site was chosen by Raja Rajdeo and
Neemrana derived its name from a brave local chieftain Nimola Meo,
who when defeated by the Chauhans, pleaded that his name be given to
his lost kingdom.
Best
season to go there is September to March.
