Plan your route from Haveli Inn, outside Sojati Gate. Distances are approximate; your entrance route and traffic can change the journey.

01 · MEHRANGARH FORT

The city, from above.

A rocky skyline, carved sandstone and rooms full of art. Give the fort time, then pause to look over the city.

02 · THE BLUE CITY

Find your own lane.

Walk through the blue-washed old-city lanes, where doors, painted walls and everyday city life reward a slower pace.

03 · CLOCK TOWER & SARDAR MARKET

The city, in motion.

Make time for the market around Ghanta Ghar: shopfronts, colour, local food and the rhythm of a lively public square.

04 · TOORJI KA JHALRA

A quieter kind of depth.

The stepwell offers stone geometry, changing light and a place to pause during an old-city walk.
