About Moosi Maharani Ki Chhatri in Alwar

Moosi Maharani Ki Chhatri is one of the key attractions in the Indian city of Alwar.

The city is a part of the state of Rajasthan that is known for its rich history and culture. The monument is replete of artistic vibes and regality of the royals that once ruled Alwar. The structure is essentially a cenotaph that was built in the year 1815. The foundation and construction of it were carried out under the overview of Maharaja Vinay Singh of Alwar.

History Of Moosi Maharani Ki Chhatri Alwar

The idea of the cenotaph was of the Maharaja who wanted to dedicate it to his father and his wife. Vinay Singh's father, Maharaja Bakhtawar Singh was a fine ruler who ruled the kingdom of Alwar. He had a mistress who stayed by his palace. After the Maharaja’s death, the cenotaph was constructed in his memory. It is said that the King’s mistress performed Sati (sitting in the last rites fire) for the King and gave her life in his memory. After this event, she was given the status of his wife as this was a ritual that was performed by the wives for their husbands.

Architecture Of Moosi Maharani Ki Chhatri

This interesting cenotaph has a double-storeyed structure that has a shape like that of a flower. The materials used for its construction are brown sandstone and white marble. The materials used for the construction of the first storey of the cenotaph is the humble sandstone. The second storey and the cenotaphs or the chhatris were made using the regal white marble. There are many intricate carvings and designs that are a part of the design of this amazing structure. The exquisite and enchanting floral tracery and patterns here are quite interesting. To pay homage to the king and his wife, their footsteps are carved out here using marble.

The Moosi Maharani Ki Chhatri Alwar Rajasthan is a wonderful monument that can be checked out while on a trip to this amazing city. It would be a great stop on one’s trip to get acquainted with the city’s history and the overall vibe.

    Rahul's 4 days trip to Alwar

    We had amazing experience in the trip. The travel agents were to the point and transparent. Rohit coordinated our travel plan, he was very helpful in customising our trip, hotels and experience bookings in advance. He helped me in deciding places of attraction. Asran ji took over as incharge once we landed in udaipur. He was very kind and prompt to us too. Our driver was good indeed, he was telling about the scams that happen in tourist places and warned us to stay away from them, however at one point in puskar we felt we succumbed to his scam when he assigned us to a guide who was his acquaintance and that guy took us to the priest who demanded us donations irrationally. I request the tourist companies to be aware of those things and keep a watch on their employees. But overall we are happy with our driver. He was punctual to the core and we never had to wait for him even it was in the beginning of the day or even when we went into a place to explore. He was always there. Thank you travel triangle for connecting us to such a wonderful travel agency and special thanks to Rohit for making this smooth and wonderful experience for us. Palace fort in udaipur, live sketching in udaipur palace, astonishing paintings, antiques and handicrafts, jaipur chappals, local artisan made sarees and comforts, local rajasthani cuisine ( we tried nearly 15+ local foods), cultural heritage, and many more I can write.

    Hemant's 4 days trip to Alwar

    We had a wonderful experience booking our *Udaipur–Chittorgarh–Pushkar–Jaipur (Rajasthan Mewar)* trip through Aapka TripWala via Travel Triangle. Chirag from the tour company was extremely helpful from the very beginning. He carefully understood our requirements, as we were travelling with our 3-year-old, and tailored the itinerary perfectly for us. He also arranged our flight tickets and hotel bookings with ease. The hotels chosen for us were exceptional in comfort, location, and service, making our stay truly memorable. Our driver, *Mr. Nandu Singh*, made the journey stress-free and pleasant from the moment he picked us up at the airport until the final drop-off. He kept us informed about possible scams at tourist spots, was always patient and courteous (even when delays happened because of our little one), and greeted us each day with a warm smile. We really appreciated that he never pushed us toward any particular shop or market. Travelling with him was an absolute delight, and his professionalism enhanced our overall trip experience. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a well-organized, trustworthy, and family-friendly travel experiene.
