"Famed as the only hill station in Rajasthan and an important Jain pilgrim site, Mount Abu is a great place to beat the summer heat. At the same time, basking in a pious spiritual milieu makes the experience all the more satisfying."
Mount Abu has the highest peak in Rajasthan's Aravali range, the Guru Shikhar. The lush greenery, sparkling water bodies and delightful wildlife makes for a refreshing change of scenery from most other parts of Rajasthan. A couple of not to be missed places here are the Jain Dilwara Temples and Nakki Lake. These Jain temples in white marble were built way back in the 11th, 12th and 13th centuries. However, those with a passion for nature, would be more in their element while boating at the Nakki Lake, surrounded by beautiful hills.
