Dhar Travel Guide

Founded by the very same Raja Bhoja who did the honours at Bhopal, Bhojpur and Mandu, Dhar is best visited enroute to Mandu. It is about 33km from Maheshwar and was the capital of Malwa until Mandu gained prominence.

Dhar tourism boasts of a rather well-preserved fort which offers great views from the ramparts. The greatest curiosity of Dhar is the Bhojashala Mosque with – hold your breath - ancient Sanskrit inscriptions on it! Another point of interest is the tomb of the Muslim saint Kamal Maula.
