Moosi Maharani Ki Chhatri

Situated outside the main palace of Alwar, Moosi Maharani ki Chhatri was built by Vinay Singh in the memory of Alwar's ruler, Maharaja Bakhtawar Singh and his queen, Rani Moosi who committed 'sati' (self immolation on her husband's pyre). This beautiful cenotaph shelters the tomb of the king and the queen and the entirechhatri is supported by pillared sandstone.

The double-storeyed structure with Aravalli hills in the background looks stunning during sunset. The top floor is carved and designed entirely in marble. The interiors are adorned with some beautiful mythological paintings and frescoes on its ceiling. You may even spot some peacocks dancing around if the weather is pleasant. Perfect location and stunning architecture, lists Moosi Maharani ki Chhatri among the popular attractions of Alwar. However, the edifice calls for maintenance.
