Passing by
In the morning, after breakfast, your driver will pick you up and take you to " Abhaneri - Chand Baori ". This place is known for the amazing 'Boris' (step wells) and Harshat Mata Temple.
2 hours Admission not included
The place is popular for the amazing 'Boris' (step wells). The village of Abhaneri is believed to be established by the King Raja Chand. Originally Abhaneri was named as Abha Nagri, which means the city of brightness, but due to the mispronunciation of the term, it is changed to the present name. Step wells are the unique concept of India. These big tanks were used as cool places of resort and water reservoir in parched days. It was a ritual to wash hands and feet at the well before visiting the temple. The temple was razed during the 10th century, but its remains still boast architectural and sculptural styles of ancient India.
Harshat Mata Temple
one hour Admission not included
Adjoining the baori is the architecturally splendid and sculpturally beautiful Harshat Mata Temple.Many of its pillars, columns, statues now lie scattered in the temple courtyard and in the corridors of the structure. The temple was dedicated to Harshat Mata, believed to be the goddess of happiness and joy, who spread her glow and brightness (abha) around the town.
Galtaji Temple
one hour Admission not included
The temple complex of Ramgopalji temple is colloquially known as Monkey temple (Galwar Bagh) in travel literature, due to the large tribe of monkeys who live here in the temples, which have been largely abandoned and only partially restored.
