Founded in the 7th century by Raja Ajaypal Chauhan, Ajmer holds immense historical importance as a former Chauhan dynasty stronghold, a major Mughal military base and a revered Sufi pilgrimage site that draws millions of pilgrims annually to the mausoleum of Khwaja Moinuddin Chishti, a symbol of religious harmony and peace. Deriving its name from Ajay Meru (Invincible Hill), the district offers historical narratives, architectural diversity and natural beauty.
