Alwar
Alwar
was once an important Rajput state. Alwar is located on the old
highway between Jaipur and
Delhi.
It has now been bypassed for its more popular hunting lodge in
Sariska, a protected tiger reserve.
150
kms from Jaipur and 170 kms from Delhi, Alwar is nestled between
a cluster of small hills of the Aravalli range. Apart from its
long history, the city has a rich natural heritage with some beautiful
lakes. Some of the finest variety of birds and animals are spotted
here. Alwar has one of the finest wildlife sanctuaries in Rajasthan
- Sariska, which is an excellent tiger country.
