The highlight of our visit to Jodhpur was the Mehrangarh Fort. This is really an amazing place, definitely the most impressive fort we visited in India so far. Besides being very well preserved both outside and inside, it offers truly amazing views over the city and its blue-washed houses. After, we also visited the Jodhpur market, and a few other sites.

O ponto alto da nossa visita a Jodhpur foi sem duvida o Forte Mehrangarh. Este e um sitio verdadeiramente espectacular, e definitivamente o forte mais impressionante que visitamos ate agora na India. Para alem de estar bastante bem conservado tanto no exterior como no interior, oferece vistas fenomenais sobre a cidade com as suas casas maioritariamente azuis. Mais tarde ainda visitamos o mercado e alguns outros sitios.

Jodhpur je opravdu modry. Nejlepe je to videt z pevnosti Mehrangarh Fort, ktera se nachazi na vrcholku obrovske skaly. Je to asi nejkrasnejsi pevnost, kterou jsme dosud navstivili. Ma nekolik pater a je velmi dobre zachovala vcetne vnitrniho vybaveni, nektere mistnosti vypadaji, jako kdyby tam jeste porad nekdo bydlel. Na hradbach je zaparkovanych nekolik del a z hradeb je take skvely vyhled na mesto a okolni kopce. Naprosta vetsina domu je natrena na modro.

Moc zapadnich turistu tady nebylo, a tak jsme zase byli hlavni turisticka atrakce pro Indy. Opet si nas fotili. Asi za to zacnem vybirat 10Rs, abysme zapadli do davu. :-)
