    Short description:

    Awe Inspiring Temples each with a story to tell make Mount Abu a delightful destination

    Rajasthan is a land of folklore, of forts and palaces, of royalty and stately elegance, of arid and desert climate. Well think again, in the middle of this desert is an oasis set up high on the mountains.

    Welcome to Mount Abu. This is the only hill station in the desert state of Rajasthan. Nestled on the highest peak of the Aravalli range, Mount Abu is a tourist retreat with no parallels. The beautiful temples, lakes, lush green forests, waterfalls, the diverse flora and fauna and the mythology associated with the place all adds up to a delightful concoction.

    So RE-Live the dream that is Rajasthan, holidaying far from the arid plains, on this beautiful hillside retreat.


    Trivia:

    The dull and listless exterior and the adorned and embellished interiors of the Jain Temples are in line with its philosophy of the religion. The Jain belief states that all humans on the face of the earth no matter what colour or shape are imperfect in their own ways. The real beauty and perfection lies within the soul.
