Kumbhalgarh Fort

Reviewed By TenishK - Gurugram (Gurgaon), India

A little less commercialized fort. It is said to have second largest wall after Great wall of China. It needs more focus from the government and needs to be transformed into a proper tourism attraction through guides or audio guide availability.

Ranakpur Dam

Reviewed By Sailor-Ahoy - Ahmedabad, Gujarat, India

A small dam but most visitors to the area are unaware of the place. This makes it a quiet and serene place to spend the evening. However, avoid staying back after sunset as the approach is tricky in the dark especially for 4 wheelers.

Shri Falna Swarna Jain Tirth - Golden Jain Temple

Reviewed By SACHINPARMAAR - Chennai (Madras), India

Golden temple at Falna, Rajasthan is located at just a minutes distance from the Railway station. The Mulnayak God is Shri Shankeshwar Parshwanath ji. The temple is around 13 years old may be since 2004. It is built well and also has accommodation (dharmashala) on the three sides of the temple so that once your out of the room the first thing you see is the temple. During summer one can call and reserve the rooms as there are a lot of travellers, visitors on pilgrimage drying the summer holidays. Good healthy food is provided 3 times a day and it is Pure Jain food. The temple by its view is so fascinating that you'd keep admiring, specially in the evening when the decorative lights are on and the temple seems illuminated. Just outside are so many shops where you can find all Rajasthani varities to shop, be it provision, clothing, veggies or sweets. The chai wala gives good tea from as early as 3 am to 1 in the mid night. The temple is silent though with much crowd and one can pray well at the temple.
