If you are planning for a Mount Abu tourism package, or want to, we give you the top
tourist attractions that you can visit!
Dilwara Jain temples
Situated about two and a half kilometres away from Mount Abu,these
temples were built during 11th century. What makes it a compelling tourist destination
is that it has used marbles in a skilful architectural way. The flawless stone laying
methods and the carvings of the ornaments might be one among the few pilgrimage
wonders. The lotus style engravings on the ceilings depicting the mythology are
a must see!
Guru Shikhar
This is the Highest peak point in the entire Mount Abu, and it
forms the Highest peak point across the Aravalli mountain ranges. It is a perfect
destination to catch a panoramic sight of the entire region, and is renown for the
temple 'Guru Dattatreya'. You can get lost in these mystic surroundings and fill
your trip with excitement. We would suggest packing food but strictly no alcohol
since it is deemed to sacred.
Achalgarh
The name depicts an ancient kingdom and a fort which was actually
built during the Paramara dynasty. The fort went under reconstruction in 1452 during
the Mewar rule, by Maharana Kumbha. That is when it was renamed to Achalgarh which
meant immovable. However, the fort lies in wreckage today, casting back a shadow
of rich history. What you can get here is a sneak peek back in to the history pages.
Nakki lake
This is yet another major tourist attraction in Mount Abu. It
is an old lake that is considered to be really sacred. There is plenty of mythological
references to this lake. The lake is also famous since the ashes of Mahatma Gandhi
were immersed here. You can get to boat amid this tranquil lake, and it would relax
you for sure!
