Shekhawati

Shekhawati means Garden of Shekha and is not a single village or town. It is a large area in north eastern. Rajasthan which lies between Bikaner, Jaipur and Jhunjhunu Districts.
Shekhawati today is known more for its exquisite frescoes that adorn the walls and ceiling of the building here. It is an open air art gallery. No other region , anywhere in the world, has such a large concentration of frescoes. This is all the more interesting as the landscape here is totally bate-flat and colourless.
Until the 1820s, most of the frescoes were financed by Rajputs and the themes were largely religious, folk heroes, historical events and personages were recorded in great detail, as were battle scenes. In fact, these paintings are more of historical records depicting the events that took place at that period. The arrival of the phirangi, or foreigner, is noted as is his style of dressing, his mode of transport and his modern weapons.

This fort also has many gateways like Padal pol, bhairon fort, hanuman pol and rams pol. This fort is an impressive reminder of Rajput heroism. The Chittorgarh fort is the living testimony of the great Rajput rulers who led down there life fighting their superior enemies instead of leading a life of submission. The fort of Chittor is believed to have been the capital of Gahlot and Sesodia kings who ruled Mewar from the eighth to the sixteen century AD. The history of this fort is written in blood and sacrifice. Muslim rulers sacked it three times in medieval period. Out of the three major sieges, the first occurred in AD 1303 when al-ud-din khilji of Delhi attacked to gain the possession of maharani Padmini, the beautiful wife of Rana Ratan Singh. The goal remained unachievable since Padmini along with the other Rajput women committed self-immolation or jauhar.

The second one was by Sultan Bahadur shah of Gujarat in AD 1535 and the jauhar was once again performed and the third siege in AD 1567 was by mughal ruler Akbar. This was a bloody war with the Jauhar being performed for the third time.
