Situated within the royal complex
of City Palace is the cenotaph of King Bhaktawar Singh and Queen Moosi, widely
popular for its striking beauty. Not immediately evinced, do ask people around
to guide you to Moosi Maharani ki chhatri as its known in Luxury Rajasthan
Tours.
Made of beautiful red sandstone,
it stands against the backdrop of the emerald green palace pond that has steps
leading to it. One of the mistresses of Maharaja Bhaktawar Singh, Moosi
Maharani was given wifely status after she committed sati (self-immolation) on
the Maharaja’s funeral pyre. Today you can see a number of city’s women paying
homage to the Maharani. If you want this city and Rajasthan Tours
then you join india largest travel company Luxury Travel of Rajasthan .
Though now faded, if you peer
closely at the chhatri you can see the fine carving that used to be on the
ceiling and interiors of the cenotaph.
