Date: Friday 2 Jan 2009
Origin: Jaipur
Mode of Travel: Self Driven Car
From Jaipur to Bhangarh: I took the NH-11 from Jaipur towards Agra. This locally, is known as Agra Road. The road, near Jaipur is loaded with traffic at times. It also passes from the hilly area. So I wasted some time there in traffic Jam. Beyond that, the road is much better and the drive was comfortable. Just before Dosa, there is a left turn towards North. This is NH-11A. Under confusion, ask the local people for the road to Ajabgarh. This road took me to Bhangarh. One has to take a left diversion to reach the place. Boards with proper directions are in place. Local people are also very helpful, in case of any help.
Bhangarh: There is a lot of text on internet which claims that this place is haunted by Ghosts. I went there and didn't find any Ghosts, but yes, the place is scary. The old and huge Banyan trees have something unusual in them. None of the buildings in the front has roofs on them. It is thought provoking that why just the roofs are gone? The walls are still in good shape.
The front entry has a board from ASI (Archaeological Survey of India) which says that domestic animals are not allowed inside. But, the place seems to be a heaven for local shepherds. I talked to one of the shepherds and she told me that the place is very good and very well maintained. Still no body used to come there. So, they rumored the story of Ghosts. Now, the number of visitors have increases but most of the visitors are still young couples who seek some solitaire from the crowded society. :)
The place if well maintained and neat. A big portion has a green lush grass ground. However, there are so many monkeys around that one has to take care while sitting down and relaxing. I touched almost every corner of the place. On the top, I noticed that a sadhu stays there. I was not concerned much so did not care to talk to him. Few of the temples are still live and worshiped.
This place is definitely worth a visit. If someone is passing from Alwar, Agar-Jaipur NH-11 or Dausa, this can be a good destination.
Hey, so glad to have come across your blog! It's brilliant! :)
ReplyDeleteI'm planning to visit Bhangarh this year. Will it be possible to do a day return trip from Alwar? Or will Agra be near? I'm a bit confused. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Cheers!
Bhargav.
bhargav bhangarh jake aaya kya
DeleteThanks.
ReplyDeleteBhangarh is nearer to Alwar as compared to Agra. From Alwar, come to NH-8 (Delhi-Jaipur Highway) and then take the NH-11A from Manoharpura.
Have a look on this

Bhangarh is on south of Ajabgarh which is shown on the map. If you zoom further, you can see bhangarh also.
Thanks for the info!
ReplyDeleteI'll be going to Alwar by train. Can I get a taxi from Alwar which will take me to Bhangarh? Any idea how much time it takes from Alwar to Bhangarh by car?
Taxi should not be an issue at Alwar. The city is not that small.
ReplyDeleteAnother route that can be taken is via Bandikui-Dausa-Bhangarh. During Jan09 I was on Bandikui-Alwar road and it was good. Not sure of the present condition. I would suggest to ask the Taxi driver for a short and good road route.
Time to reach bhangarh from Alwar should not be more that 2.5 hours one way.
Thanks a lot! Looking forward to visit Bhangarh :)

ReplyDeleteDebojit,
ReplyDeleteFrom Jaipur to Bharatpur: 4 hours.
From Bharatpur to Bhangarh: 3 hours
(assuming there are no traffic jams and roads are not taken away by the over flowing rivers of this monsoon).
Route is not dangerous.
