Located at the heart of the city near Nai Sarak and Sardar Market, Ghanta Ghar (Clock Tower) is one of Jodhpur’s most recognized landmarks. Commissioned by Maharaja Sardar Singh in the late 19th century, this architectural gem blends traditional Indian design with a unique perspective, making it stand apart from the usual gothic-style clock towers. Unlike the typical square structures, Ghanta Ghar’s design carries a distinctive local charm that continues to fascinate visitors even today. Surrounded by the bustling Ghantaghar Market, it is not only a historic monument but also the gateway to Jodhpur’s vibrant bazaars — a must-visit for anyone exploring the Blue City.

Toorji’s Step Well – was built in the 1740s by Maharaja Abhaya Singh’s Queen. Submerged for nearly a century, its recent drainage, clean-up and restoration has uncovered over two hundred feet of hand carved treasure in Jodhpur’s famous Rose-Red Sand-Stone; intricate carvings of dancing elephants, medieval lion and cow water-spouts, and niches housing deities long gone. Your stay in Jodhpur would be incomplete without a visit to this wondrous monument.

In the heart of Jodhpur lies Navchowkiya and Sodagaran Mohalla, where the city truly earns its title as the “Blue City.” Here, most of the Brahmin community painted their homes in shades of blue by mixing limestone with a touch of indigo. This iconic blue not only gives the neighborhood its magical charm but also serves a purpose — it helps keep homes cool in the desert heat and even repels mosquitoes. Wandering through these lanes is like stepping into a living canvas — a must-see for anyone wishing to experience the authentic soul of Jodhpur.

Located in Sodagaran Mohalla, Pachetia Hill offers one of the best vantage points to admire the Blue City. From here, you can enjoy a 360° panoramic view of the old city, with its iconic blue houses, bustling streets, and historic architecture stretching as far as the eye can see. A perfect spot for photography, sightseeing, and soaking in the charm of Jodhpur from above!

Nestled at the foot of Mehrangarh Fort, Ranisar and Padamsar Lakes are serene, interconnected water bodies dating back to the 15th century.

Their calm waters beautifully reflect the fort and the iconic Blue City, offering a peaceful retreat and a glimpse into the city’s ingenious water management and rich heritage. A perfect spot for relaxation, photography, and soaking in history while exploring Jodhpur.
