Bharatpur

Founded in 1733 by the legendary Maharaja Suraj Mal, Bharatpur was the impregnable stronghold of the brave Jat rulers, famed for the historic Lohagarh Fort which British armies could never conquer. Its world-renowned Keoladeo wetland was originally an 18th-century royal duck-shooting preserve, today protected as a UNESCO World Heritage sanctuary hosting millions of migratory birds.
