Statue of Rao Jodha Ji

The statue of Rao Jodha Ji in Jodhpur is a significant monument honoring the founder of the city, Rao Jodha, who established Jodhpur in the 15th century. The statue is located near the historic Mehrangarh Fort, which Rao Jodha built, and it serves as a tribute to his contributions to the region. The statue is often visited by tourists and locals alike, paying homage to the city's rich history and heritage. It's a fantastic spot to admire the architectural marvels of the city while soaking in the historical ambiance and natural charm of the area.

The Rao Jodha Ji Statue stands tall, honoring the founder of Jodhpur. Positioned on a rocky hilltop, it offers a limited yet beautiful view of the city. A serene spot, especially during sunset, providing a unique perspective of the city's beauty.

Statue of Rao Jodha with iron fences on top of a small hill approx 1 km from Mehrangarh Fort where he is sitting on a horse and pointing towards the Bhakhar Chidiya Hill telling us that it is where the fort will be constructed.

The guy I owe my heritage, history and surname to.

Rao Jodha was stripped of his ancestral lands of Mandore due to the death of his father (Rao Ranmal) in Mewar

But he negotiated peace with his neighbours and then realised that a fortress is required for him to rule, and then conceived the idea of Mehrangarh and Jodhpur with the blessings of Maa Karni.

And the rest is history, actually even the previous is history but the rest is really a history to see the whole city flourish even now and Ummed Bhawan Palace being built by his successors to really make the entire city a hallmark of this one family.

A marvellous statue of Rao Jodha Ji, a beautiful place to witness sunset. Rocky hill top with a limited and beautiful view of Jodhpur city. Overall a beautiful place to visit.

The tall statue of Rao Jodha Ji, founder of Jodhpur City is worth a look. Unveiled on the 554th Jodhpur Foundation Day on 12th May 2012, the statue is located close to Jaswant Thada. The statue is set on a small hilltop, from where the view of Mehrangarh Fort looks just amazing. The statue of the king on a horse, pointing at the Mehrangarh Fort is encircled by iron grills. Those photography enthusiasts can take a few clicks with the huge statue as a backdrop. It is also a great location for getting a fantastic view of the fort at a distance.
