High on the ramparts of the fort there are
many cannon. Some of which have been brought here as war booty. Even one
from China taken in the Boxer Rebellion.

|
The blue houses of the old city surround the
fort on all sides.
|
|
|
|
Polo is still a popular game
in Jodhpur. At least among the royal family.
|
|
After the fort, we hire a tuktuk to take us
to the current residence for the Maharaja of Jodhpur: the Umaid Bhawan
Palace. It is now part museum, part hotel, and part private residence.
|
|
We have dinner outside, watching the sunset
over the palace gardens. The end of a long day, and tomorrow we try our
luck on the motorcycle again.
