Situated 100 Kms from Jaipur, Tonk is an old town dating to the middle of the 17th century, resurrects a forgotten era. The new town is a colourful medley of painted mosques, mansions and colonial buildings.

The Sunehri Kothi, or Golden Mansion, is particularly lovely, noted for its mirror work. It is a small palace decorated profusely with mother-of-pearl, gold, and many other precious and semi-precious stones.

The Arabic & Persian Research Institute and Toda Rai Singh Town are two other attractions in this district. Tonk does not have its own railway station and airport, but its location on a National Highway connects it with Jaipur and other major places in Rajasthan easily. It can be considered as a good stopover, if you are moving towards Ranthambore National Park from Jaipur.

Heritage Hotels of Tonk

In the cities of Maharajas, the hospitality also tends to treat you like a king. Tonk has a number of heritage hotels and heritage resorts to serve you in the most grandeur fashion. Most of the heritage hotels were at once residences of former kings and queens of this region. These heritage hotels that were at once crumbling old structures, have returned to life today because of their renovation and the money coming from the hotel trade. If you are in Tonk or for that matter any part of Rajasthan, don't forget to pamper yourself with a royal treatment at any one of these sprawling mansions.

Castle Awan

Castle Awan once initially served as a shooting lodge for the visiting Maharajas who came to Sawai Madhopur. The castle is located in a 15th century village and today serves as a good accommodation option for wildlife tours. The hotel has 7 comfortable rooms with a common dining hall that serves Indian, regional, and Continental food.
