Raajsa Resort Kumbhalgarh
Kumbhalgarh, India
"A majestic stone fortress-style resort in Kelwara, Kumbhalgarh - 176 rooms, suites & pool villas, the 2,000-guest Royal Lawn against fortress ramparts, 500-guest Darbar Hall, near the Great Wall of India (Kumbhalgarh Fort) and Kumbhalgarh Wildlife Sanctuary."
Raajsa Resort Kumbhalgarh is an architectural marvel that mirrors the grandeur of the historic Kumbhalgarh Fort located nearby - the world's second-longest continuous wall (after the Great Wall of China), giving it the nickname "The Great Wall of India". Constructed entirely of indigenous stone with intricate Mewar carvings, this resort feels like a contemporary 15th-century castle. It is one of the largest resorts in the Kumbhalgarh region, making it a top choice for grand destination weddings. With its massive ramparts, hillside setting at higher Aravalli altitude (cooler than Udaipur), and proximity to the Kumbhalgarh Wildlife Sanctuary (leopards, wolves, sloth bears), it offers a dramatic and royal fortress backdrop where 700-year Mewar history meets modern luxury - ideal for 1,000-2,000 guest mega weddings.
