Thread: Bhanghar Most Haunted Place in India

Distance :84km from Alwar
Distance :170km from Delhi
Bhangarh was once a flourishing town of 10,000 homes. That was in the 17th century when it was built by Raja Madho Singh, the illustrious Man Singh I's brother (Man Singh was one of the nine gems in Akbar's court, remember? See History of Amber for more). But it's all gone now; only splendid ruins remain. According to prevalent tales, the town was cursed by an evil magician and had to be abandoned. The fear still looms large in the minds of the locals, for they tread the soil of Bhangarh cautiously.

Most of Bhangarh is in ruins. Crumbling temples, walls and pavilions standing against the silent wilderness of forested hills scream out about the town's ancient prosperity. The ruins of the arches and colonnades, built on various levels, suggest that it was once quite an elaborate complex. Portions like a pavilion and a minaret on a mound are somewhat intact. The site seems the perfect place to pack a picnic lunch and retire to.
The recently restored evocative medieval bazaar is a truly fascinating experience. Nearby is the finely carved Someshwar Temple. The temple tank is still used by villagers to bathe and wash. There's also the Temple of Gopinath which has carved pillars and a corbeled cupola. Another fascinating monument of Bhangarh is the Randiyon ka Mahal (Palace of Prostitutes). Its unusual name probably comes from female courtesans for whom the palace was built. In those days female court attendants were also taken from harems of rulers. Overall, Bhangarh makes an exciting trip.

Update: Me and Parminder visited Bhangarh recently and I have posted a thread about our trip to Bhangarh on India travel forum.

Saugat : Katwaria Sarai ?? a haunted place ?? who told u dude ??

Google suggests 'Katwari sarai Ghost' when you search Katwaria sarai.. so i think theres something in it..
thats not me saying.. check yourself..

Does anyone know if I there is a train from New Delhi to this place? I would love to go and see what the place looks like and will let you all know if I find any ghosts there

I read your thread which says you would go to Jaipur as well and this place is not too far from Jaipur its on the way from Delhi to Jaipur and I would suggest taking a day trip from Jaipur as there is hardly anything to do there its just the place where you would probably spend an hour or two so would be better if you took a bus or taxi from Jaipur and then back in the evening.

Do let us know if you find any ghosts ha ha ha!

^^it got media attention because of aajtak's "kal kapaal mahakaal" stuff i guess:P

btw it is Bangar as of "Sanjay Bangar" or just a place name??

Thanks for your suggestions. I will make it a day trip and if I take any pictures there will post them here for you guys too.
