Jhalwar Travel Guide
The Princely State of Jhalawar was created in 1838 A. D. after being separated
from Kota by the British. It got its name derived from Jhalas, the Jhala clan
of Rajputs, also the rulers of Jhalawar.
Lying in the south-eastern region of Rajasthan at the edge of the Malwa plateau,
Jhalawar has rocky, but water-laden verdant landscape, unlike much of the Rajasthan.
With some exquisite pre-historic cave paintings, massive forts, thickly-wooded
forests and exotic wildlife variety, Jhalawar boasts of rich historic as well
as natural wealth.
Jhalawar region has an exotic flavor with its diverse range of flora and fauna,
with which it is richly-blessed. Red poppy fields add to the vibrant color,
