Jaswant Thada, Royal cenotaph near Mehrangarh Fort, Jodhpur, India
The cenotaph stands as a memorial structure built entirely of white Makrana marble with detailed carvings and intricate latticework throughout its architecture.
Maharaja Sardar Singh commissioned this monument in 1899 to honor his father Maharaja Jaswant Singh II, who implemented numerous reforms in Jodhpur.
The structure functions as the traditional cremation grounds for the Marwar royal family, containing portraits of former rulers and three additional cenotaphs.
Visitors can explore the memorial daily between 9:00 AM and 5:00 PM, with entrance fees of 50 rupees for international tourists and 30 rupees for domestic guests.
The thin marble sheets used in construction allow sunlight to penetrate and create a warm illumination effect throughout the interior spaces.
