Dholpur is an interesting town to visit, especially because it is far from the usual tourist track and thus, quite 'undiscovered'. But Dholpur is well known in another way – for its excellent sandstone.This red stone was used for building not just the local structures but also those of Delhi like the Red Fort. In fact, the architect of modern Delhi, Edward Lutyens, had a special liking for it. Visit the stained grounds of Dholpur in Rajasthan and have a recapitulation of the bygone era. Listen to the whispering of the otherwise trivial town, and explore the unanswered questions of mortality and immorality |
