The Cenotaphs of Bada Bagh

It was the custom to build a cenotaph for each Bhatti ruler.  The first was for Mararawal Jait Singh who reigned from 1470 - 1506. 

The death of a young prince from a mystery illness in 1947 was interpreted as a bad omen and the building of cenotaphs was discontinued.

Our camel safari was to have been one of the highlights of the trip for me but proved to be the major disappointment. 

Fanny decided to go along at the last minute and we booked through our hotel. I had the option to camp overnight in the desert or return with Fanny after dinner.

We were driven to a village to await our camels.

We waited and waited.
