Kota, Educational center in Rajasthan, India

Located on the banks of Chambal River at 271 meters elevation, Kota stretches across the Malwa Plateau with Mokandarra hills in the background.

The establishment of Kota as an independent state occurred in 1631 when Rao Madho Singh separated from Bundi during Emperor Jahangir's reign.

The textile industry of Kota produces cotton and silk garments with distinctive weaving patterns that attract merchants from across India for wedding collections.

Students from different regions gather at numerous educational centers to prepare for engineering and medical entrance examinations throughout the year.

The Seven Wonders Park and Garh Palace demonstrate the intersection of medieval architecture with modern urban development in this educational municipality.
