Top 30 Places to Visit in March In Rajasthan 2025

Rajasthan as the name says is a land of Kings. This piece of land on earth has seen many rulers who have come and ruled over the people of Mewar and Marwar. By reading this, you must be wondering what Mewar and Marwar are? Let me help you by clearing out the concepts of Mewar and Marwar.

Marwar is an area surrounded by sand. So when you search for the meaning of Marwar on search engines, it will show you the breakup of the word “Marwar”. The word “Maru” in Sanskrit means desert and the word “wad” means fence. So when you put the words together it becomes Marwar meaning deserts protecting the land from invasions. Hence there are some cities that come under this region and those are cities like Jodhpur, Pali, Nagaur, Jaisalmer, Barmer, Jalore, Bikaner, Churu, Jhunjhunu and Sikar. These are the areas that come under the Marwar region.

Mewar is a region that was self-independently ruled by the Guhila Dynasty and then later followed on by the Sisodia dynasty. This kingdom was centred around the southwest region of Rajasthan. It is guarded by the Aravalli hills on the northwest, Ajmer on the north, Gujarat, Malwa and Vagad on the south and the Hadoti region to the east. The cities that come under this region are Udaipur, Chittorgarh and Rajsamand.
