Liatris1 Says: I really recommend a hike up to the Fort! Beautiful views of the city and surroundings.Read my travelouge about our walk up to the fort early one morning...Bundi Travelouge.
lynnehamman Says: These murals, which feature paintings of Krishna , Royal processions , and battle scenes have been remarkably well preserved. One room has a chinese inspired painted ceiling.The colours are striking- predominantly blue, turqouise, green, with touches of goldleaf.Many of the...
lynnehamman Says: Sitting on the rooftop terrace of our guesthouse one morning, we were amazed to see men dangling precariously from ropes, which were secured to balconies on the palace. They were swinging around, beating at the hidden bee-hives which have formed in the eaves of the palace...
lynnehamman Says: Bustling with people, the markets are a popular place to shop, eat, or just to stroll about in.The atmosphere is quite festive. Chai shops provide a good stop for a rest. We really liked the Sabzi market, and bought fruit and vegetables at a ridiculously low price. Along the...
The Fort in Bundi-Monkey Paradise
lynnehamman Says: Behind and above the palace complex stands Taragarh Fort. Built in 1354, the crumbling ruins of this once mighty Rajput fort are now home to what seems like the whole monkey population of Bundi. The overgrowth of vines is ideal. Vegatation is creeping out of the cracks in...
lynnehamman Says: Stroll around these well laid out gardens.They are filled with colour, and beautifully laid out. There is a fountain, and sandstone seats dotted around. These are a good place to just sit and relax after exploration of the palace and fort above. Trees offer shady spots to...
lynnehamman Says: This palace, which was the highlight of of our stay in Bundi, must surely be one of the most sadly neglected in all of Rajasthan. Constructed in the 17th century, sections were added on by different rulers over the following two centuries.. Built on a very steep hill, it...

lynnehamman Says: Getting There By RoadBundi is well connected by road to other important cities of Rajasthan such as Jaipur, Ajmer, Kota etc. Buses (mostly Govt. transport corporation) run to Delhi too.By RailBundi is connected to Kota, Chittaurgarh, and Delhi by train. Though the best bet...
Bus from Chitto to Bundi and on to Ajmer
tremendopunto Says: The bus to Bundi took about 5 hours. From Bundi to Ajmer we needed aproximately 4 hours. Prices are dirt cheap, therefore you enjoy the typical "bus-massage", not to say broken bones ;-)But hey, no pain - no gain!
Abdul Qadar Tayyab Ali: Anything you need. . .
Canadienne Says: Some parts of Bundi have apparently caught up with the modern world in a big way. . .Be sure to read the sign carefully.
Canadienne Says: Bundi is famed for its miniature paintings. There is a highly-reputed school in the town, as well as a style of miniature painting that was developed in Bundi. The amount of detail that goes into such small pieces of art is incredible. . .they are called "treasures of the...
tremendopunto Says: You always see a lot of garbage in Indian streety. The reason why there is not even more trash to see is that cows eat up nearly everything! They not only give milk and produce fire material (dried cow dung) for the poor - they also clean the streets. They really are holy...
Canadienne Says: We arranged for our local guide through the Hotel Haveli Braj Bhushanjee. His name was Kesave and I would recommend asking for him. He was wonderfully entertaining, well-historied in his town and a incredibly kind man; I was told a couple of times that I reminded him of his...
illumina Says: If you are going to walk up the hill past Bundi Palace to Taragarh Fort, make sure you have some decent footwear on. The hillside is littered with thorns which, I kid you not, are at least half an inch long, and sharp as hell. I got a couple stuck in my foot and it was...
lynnehamman Says: We had endless trouble finding ATM's in Bundi. There were 2 that were close by to where we were staying- neither worked. Some hotels do not accept credit cards for payment- so it is a good idea to have some rupees on hand when visiting here. (American dollars are accepted,...
tremendopunto Says: Whereever there is power in India there is DANGER! Electric engineering is a kind of art in India - to use the words of an Indian biting on the wire to connect our TV to make it run: "That´s Indian style!"......and that means freestyle. Whenever you get close to any power...
Canadienne Says: With so much on offer in the palace and fort, it would be easy to forget that Bundi holds even more in store. . .It's not really off-the-beaten path, but it might be easily overlooked during a visit ~ Bundi's vegetable and fruit market is one of the most colourful and...
Canadienne Says: The Sukh Niwas palace is a romantic place to visit ~ quiet and almost forgotten by time. Apparently, Kipling spent time here, drawing on the surroundings for inspiration for his writing.The front of the palace is decorated with Bundi-style painted figures, the distinctive...
Canadienne Says: Bundi is known across the country for its school of miniature paintings, one of the main arts of India. The town itself, isolated in its valley, and independent from its neighbouring states, even appears to be a miniature painting, frozen in time. From almost anywhere you...
Canadienne Says: The small sleepy town of Bundi, a fairly unexplored city with lots to offer, is surrounded by on three sides by the oldest hills in India: the Aravallis. It is also guarded by an ancient wall with four gateways. Bundi is located about 5 hours from Jaipur and 5 hours from...
