It was my life  by Konar    7th Nov 08
Ajmer is a beautiful city surrounded, as well as set into, the hills of Aravalli range. The original name of this city was "Ajaimeru" named after the renowned King Ajaipal Singh. Ajmer is famous for three unique things - Pushkar (abode of Lord Brahma), Dargah (shrine of Moin-ud-din Chisti) & its rich source of Marble in Kishangarh & Makrana. I had spent 12 important & valuable years of my life in this city.

Ajmer  by Bhanwar    14th Apr 08
Ajmer is situated at the foot of an 800-feet high mountain on the top of which stands, in solemn splendor, the celebrated fort of Garh Beetli or Bithali named after Bithaldas Gaur the trusted General of Emperor Shah Jahan, which is now called Taragarh (the star citadel). This city stretches out in all directions of a spacious valley and is hemmed in on all sides by picturesque hills. Its holy traditions are equally replete with Rajput chivalry and Muslim supremacy in the past history of Hindustan. Few cities of India can boast of Ajmer’s religious sanctity for both Hindus and Muslims, its glorious history and it natural beauty. It was in Ajmer that Khawaja Muinuddin Chishti laid the permanent foundation of Islam in India in 1192 A.D. by his spiritual powers and peaceful preachings. It was in Ajmer that Sir Thomas Roe, as ambassador of King James I of England, had his audience with Emperor Jahangir on 19th January 1616 A.D.
