Places To Visit In Bundi
Shikar Burj
Shikar Burj is another tourist destination in the quaint city of Bundi. Located at a little distance from Sukh Mahal, Shikar Burj is actually an old hunting cottage owned by the rulers of Bundi.
The beautiful hunting lodge is located in the sun dappled forests in the city of Bundi.
Step Wells
The step-wells of the town are a trademark feature of Bundi. These wells were constructed as a means of providing water to the famine prone town of Bundi.
They are also known as baori, vav, kund or sagar in the local dialect. These step wells are of different shapes and are used to collect and store water. Bundi has a total of 50-odd very old wells and tanks.
Sukh Mahal
Sukh Mahal, which is located on the periphery of the lake Jait Sagar was built during Umed Singh's regime. It is a universal belief that the old palace and Sukh Mahal are connected by means of an underground tunnel.
The main attraction of Sukh Mahal is a white marble Chhatri or an umbrella. This magnificent umbrella stands on the roof of the second storey of the Sukh Mahal. The purpose behind constructing this palace was to make provisions for the princes of those times to have a free hand in their nefarious activities.

Taragarh Fort
Constructed in the year 1354, the Taragarh Fort is one of the most impressive structures in Bundi. The state of Bundi was founded in this year by Rao Deva, and this was when the construction of this massive square began. Popularly known as the 'Star Fort', the attraction is located on a steep hill and offers a panoramic view of the entire city of Bundi situated in the Nagpahari of Aravalli ranges. The fort was described by the famous author Rudyard Kipling as "more the work of Goblins than of men". Sadly, time took its toll on this magnificent structure, and most of the majestic and fascinating architecture of the fort is now in ruins.
The entrance to the fort is marked by three gateways, followed by tunnels and many battlements along with ramparts. These exhibits are also of great interest to the tourists, such as the famous Grand Canyon or the 'Garbha Gunjan'. The Rani Mahal, which was built exclusively for the wives and concubines of the rulers of those times and is located in the same area, is also a great and famous attraction for tourists. The place is at its peak of beauty when the sun sets, and the entire city is immersed in the fading light of the setting sun.
