The monument, in its entirety, is built out of intricately carved
sheets of marble. These stones are extremely thin and polished so that
they emit a warm glow when the sun's rays dance across their surface.
Within this cenotaph, there are also two more tombs. The Jaswant Thada
is a traditional cremation ground of Jodhpur rulers. The grounds also
include exquisitely carved gazebos, a beautiful multi-tiered garden,
and a small lake. |
