Ajmer, a former state of northwestern India, is now a part of the state of Rajasthan. It was founded during the 12th century.
It used to be a Mughal military base, and it was there that Jehangir greeted the ambassador of James I of England, Sir Thomas Roe.
It is here that you find cotton mills and railroad shops because the city has developed into a thriving trade center.
Its goods include wool textiles, hosiery, shoes, soap, and pharmaceuticals. Ajmer is fascinating for housing a display of many ancient remains including a Jain temple.
The city is a genuine fusion of Hindu and Islamic culture. It is believed to be where Muin-ud-din Chishti (a Muslim saint) who died in 1235 was born.
The sacred lake of Pushkar has been a place of pilgrimage for ages because it is believed by Hindus to be as old as the temple of Brahma Ajmer epitomizes the peacefulness of different cultures that's worth exploring.
