It could be said that at this city, it would be not wrong to say that a trip to the 84 Pillared Cenotaph, situated in the southern part of this city should be the top most priority of the visitors. The 84 Pillared Cenotaph, which is also referred by the locals as the Chaurasi Khambon ki Chatri has got its name due to the fact that the pavilion is supported by 84 pillars.
The credit for the construction of this wonderful pavilion goes to Rao Anirudh Singh, who built this pavilion in the year 1683 to show his regard to the services that were offered by his nurse to him. It is to be noted here that this two storeyed structure also serves as a temple as well as a cenotaph. It is sad to note that with the passage of time, the importance of the cenotaph got reduced but the case is not the same as far as the temple is concerned as this temple, which is adorned with the Shiva Linga is visited by a large number of devotees.
At this site, you would find it hard to resist yourself from admiring the paintings that depicts scenes of the Rajput battles as well as the symbols that are associated with the fish.
It could be said without the slightest hesitation that a trip to this place would prove to be a great experience for you.
