Dholpur district, Administrative district in Bharatpur division, India.
Dholpur is a district in the Bharatpur region that stretches along the Chambal River and is known for its red sandstone formations. The area is characterized by deep ravine systems and a rocky landscape shaped by natural geological processes.
The district was separated from the former Bharatpur District in 1982 and established as an independent administrative unit. This reorganization was part of a broader administrative restructuring in Rajasthan.
The local language Braj Bhasha remains actively spoken in daily life and carries influences from neighboring linguistic regions. Visitors notice this language when interacting with residents and in the way people communicate in markets and villages.
The area is divided into several administrative divisions managed from the main city of Dholpur. Visitors should know that the ravine-filled terrain affects travel conditions and local roads to river regions require careful navigation.
The eastern landscape features natural sand formations known as Chambal Bharka, which create striking natural barriers along the river. These geological structures formed over time through river erosion and create an unusual landscape feature.
