 Sariska (Rajasthan)


Sariska History : Once an ancient Rajput state, formerly known as Mewat, Alwar was nearest to the imperial Delhi. The people of the state did not accept any external interference’s and daringly resisted against foreign invasions. In the 12th and 13th centuries, they formed a group and raided Delhi. But finally Sultan Bulban (1267 A.D. - 1287 A.D.) suppressed them, bringing the area under the Muslims rule. In 1771 A.D. Maharaja Pratap Singh, a Kuchhwaha Rajput belonging to the clan of Jaipur’s rulers, won back Alwar and founded a principality of his own

 
Description:  Sariska - the city has a rich natural heritage with some beautiful lakes and picturesque valleys thickly wooded in parts. Perched on the most prominent of these hills is a massive ancient fort that whispers tales of the rich history of the city.
