Ahar Cenotaphs, Memorial complex in Udaipur, India

The Ahar Cenotaphs contain 250 royal monuments with marble structures, elevated pavilions, and detailed carvings spread across the memorial grounds.

Between the 15th and 19th centuries, these cenotaphs were constructed to honor the Maharajas of Mewar, beginning with Maharana Amar Singh I in 1620.

Each of the nineteen chhatris represents a specific Maharaja, incorporating stone sculptures of deities and royal figures within their architectural design.

Located 3 kilometers east of central Udaipur, the memorial complex remains open daily from 10:00 AM to 4:30 PM, with free entry to the cenotaphs.

The cenotaph of Maharana Sangram Singh features 56 pillars and an octagonal dome, marking the final resting place of the ruler and his 21 wives.
