Neemrana,
a tiny village in Alwar, is situated about 122Km from Delhi.
The village has its own historical importance and is located
about 75Km from the main Alwar city.
Being close to both Neemrana and Delhi, Neemrana is the perfect
getaway for the people residing in these cities. The Neemrana
Fort and Palace is one of the most important tourist destinations
in Neemrana, Alwar, and Rajasthan. The fort is located on a
plateau that is concealed in a horseshoe pattern in the Aravalli
hills.
History
Located almost midway between Delhi and Jaipur, Neemrana dates
back to 1464 A.D., when it was built as a fortified palace.
It was inhabited almost continuously until independence in 1947,
when royal privileges were first curtailed and then abolished.
Maharaja Rajendra Singh then moved out, the people of the Neemrana
village moved in, and the palace was slowly ransacked over the
next 30 years. Finally Aman Nath and Francis Wacziarg rediscovered
it in the late 1970's and took on the task of maintaining it
and turning it into an exclusive heritage hotel.
Neemrana fort palace is one of the oldest and finest amongst
India's Heritage Hotels. Each room is decorated in individual
style with period furniture, private open terraces and courtyards.
One of the nicest aspects of Neemrana is its dining. The cuisine
is Rajasthani Indian and Continental, mainly French and every
meal is different. The hotel now also offers a swimming pool
and Ayurvedic massage centre.
