Gatore Ki Chhatriyan

Gatore Ki Chhatriyan
Jaipur, India (IN)
This is the royal crematorium grounds for the Kachwaha, a Rajput clan that ruled in the region. The site was designated by the founder of Jaipur in the 1700s. The royals’ cenotaphs are scattered throughout the complex, creating what looks like a mix of shrunken open-air palaces and ornate towers. The structures mark the spots where former leaders were cremated.
