Ajmer
The small town of Ajmer, 78 miles west of Jaipur, played a surprisingly important role in India's history. Set at the point where the rocky Aravalli Hills end and the Thar Desert begins, this was originally the stronghold of the powerful Chauhan Dynasty of Rajputs, who built India's first ever hill fort here in the 7th century. Ajmer situated in the green oasis wrapped in the barren hills has been a witness to an interesting past. The city was founded by Raja Ajai Pal Singh in the 7th century AD and was brought under the control of Delhi Sultanate in 1193 when Prthiviraj Chauhan lost it to Mohammed Ghauri. Since then Ajmer became home to many dynasties. which came and left - leaving behind indelible marks of their cultutre and traditions on the city's history, converting it to an amalagam of various cultures and a blend of Hinduism and Islam. Ajmer also played an important role in paving the way for British East India Company in India. In 1616, Jehangir met ambassador of King James, Sir Thomas Roe. That was the first meeting between any Mughal Emperor and representatives of Britain. In the 17th century, Shahjahan built marble pavilions around the Ana Sagar Lake. The Taragarh Fort was damaged badly during the Mughal war of succession between Aurangzeb and Dara Shikoh. Schindi Rulers of Gwalior took over Ajmer in the mid 18th century, to be handed over to the British in 1818.

Ajmer is now popular pilgrimage centre for the Hindus as well as the Muslims. Especailly famous is the Dargah Shariff 0 Tomb of the Sufi Saint Khawja Moinuddin chisti, Which is equally reverred by the Hindus and Muslims.
