Kishangrah Travel Guide
Located in the center of Rajasthan, Kishangarh is named after Maharaja Kishan
Singh who founded the town in 1611 AD. A rich storehouse of marbles, the
main attractions in Kishangarh are its Fort and Phool Mahal, which is now
converted into a heritage hotel. The town is located about 27 km from Ajmer
and has one of India's most famous schools of miniature paintings. One of
the most famous renowned paintings is that of Krishna's consort Radha, who
is depicted as a beautiful woman with enchanting almond eyes. Kishangarh
is also famous for Bani Thani Paintings. The artist of this school favored
evening lights and gray skies with fine colors. This outstanding school
lasted only a few decades. Today the artists still create duplicates of
the work. Kishangarh is now an industrial town for marble and textiles.
