About Moosi Maharani Ki Chhatri in 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.

Gurunathan's 3 days trip to Alwar

The hotels in general were not at a three star level except for Shani Vilas in Ranthambore. The hotel in Agra did not even have hot water. The initial room provided in Delhi's metro view was very bad and we had to request for a change. The toilet flush was not working, the bathroom door did not have a latch, the door was broken etc. Please ensure that the right level of hotels are provided.

Mozhiarasu's 5 days trip to Alwar

The best thing happened is the drivers in the jodpur, who resolved the messed up plan by the travel agent. Hotel Sia Resorts changed and we have been changed to different resort,which was older property. The daywise plan made by the travel agent was absurd and created lot of confusion.

Anushka's 4 days trip to Alwar

We have booked a tour to Rajasthan through Trip Sailor.com. The accommodation given was really good,the itinerary was nicely curated. But the driver was not up to the mark, he was driving very rashly. The driver as a person was good, he listened to us whenever we asked for anything but road awareness and road safety is important for a tourist driver. Other than that everything was really nice and smooth. It was a hassle free trip to Rajasthan. We really liked your service. Thankyou Sandeep from Trip Sailor.Com City Palace Jaipur was magnificent

Shraddha's 6 days trip to Alwar

We recently had an incredible trip to Rajasthan planned through Back to Holidays, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. A special thanks to Preeti from their team, who organized everything flawlessly. From the beginning, Preeti guided us with great recommendations, especially when it came to hotels. She assured us to trust her choices, and we are so glad we did! The hotels were amazing, with excellent rooms, great service, and delicious food. The vehicle arranged for our travel was comfortable, and our driver was extremely polite and professional. Throughout the trip, Preeti was always available whenever we needed any assistance, making sure everything went smoothly. The highlight of our trip was undoubtedly the desert camp. It was an unforgettable experience, and we are so thankful to Preeti for recommending it. Everything about it was perfect, and we thoroughly enjoyed every moment. I traveled with my family(with 2.5 year old and senior citizen), and we all absolutely loved the entire journey. My parents were especially happy and had a wonderful time without a single complaint. This trip was a truly memorable one, and we highly recommend Preeti from Back to Holidays for a well-planned, stress-free vacation. Thank you, Preeti, and the team for making this trip so special!

Hi Back to Holidays Team, We have planned a trip this month to Rajasthan and your Executive Ms. Preeti Sharma has helped us a lot and planned our trip smoothly. The hotels suggested by her in a very cost-centric way and the properties are also good. Even during our trip, she has helped us on call and managed the things. I sincerely want to thank her for support and guidance.

Srikumar's 3 days trip to Alwar

Sidhu (Being Musafir) was a great person for planning the trip in Rajasthan to Agra and Delhi (final drop off at the airport). We did a trip in Rajasthan, Agra and Delhi which was organised by Sidhu. We had many changes in the initial planning phase. Sidhu was very patient and provided the right information, which helped us nail the final plan. He shared the hotels as per our requirements and budget. All the hotels were superb. Only once we had issues with the hotel, and after informing Sidhu, he re-booked us to a five star hotel instantly. It was a dream come true! Everyday, Sidhu used to call and inquire, of any issues we are having. And the driver+car provided by Sidhu for the trip, was just what we wanted for the trip! The Driver (Rakesh) never said "no" to any of our requests. He gave us all the right suggestions, being a local in Rajasthan, which also helped us very much. We could not have asked for more from Sidhu and Rakesh.

Vandana's 7 days trip to Alwar

Hasale free booking and had a great time during my trip. The hotels and the guide during my trip were exceptional. The only issue is had was with the driver who was not local and did not know the routes which made it a bit difficult coz I had to rely on Google maps all the time. I loved the Jaisalmer hotel and also the guide. He was very knowledgeable
