in 7th century by Ajaipal Chauhan. He named it Ajaimeru the 'invincible hill'.
The city's Muslim history began when Prithviraj Chauhan lost Ajmer to Sultan
Muhammad Ghori in 1193 A.D. The Persian saint Khwaja Moinuddin Chishti who came
with Muhammad Ghori from Persia in 1192 settled here. Thus the place where he
was buried is today known as the Dargah Sharif. Construction of the shrine was

inscription running the full length of the building. Later continue your drive

important pilgrimage centre and you'll see plenty of Saints. Pushkar boasts
temples, though few are as ancient as you might expect at such an important
pilgrimage site, since many were deserted by Aurangzeb and subsequently rebuilt.
The most famous is the Brahma Temple, said to be one of the few temples in the
