One Day in Alwar itinerary – What to Do in Alwar, Rajasthan

When you read about the North Indian state of Rajasthan, the only thing that comes to mind is historical monuments and colorful attires. The picture that you envisage about the region will not fail you either. Being in Rajasthan means that you will chance upon a fort every so often. Although Jaipur, Udaipur and Jaisalmer are the cities that attract the most tourist attention, these places require at least a few days of time to explore them well. Alwar, in contrast, is a quaint town in Rajasthan that is surprisingly pleasant to visit and have a quick, crisp experience of the local culture and history. As you maneuver the roads, you will find remnants of ancient structures and milestones which give a glimpse of how the old world must have been in this province of India.

Unlike most other cities in North India, Alwar in Rajasthan is a veiled gem that does not appear on travel blogs a lot but is a place that you can and must visit, especially if you have only one day to travel. Alwar is one of the calmest towns in the region where you will find forts tucked into the mountains, delectable Rajasthani cuisines and an opportunity to blend with the locals. Such places feel particularly pleasant when you are already tired of the hustle-bustle of Indian cities and want to clear the clutter in your mind with slow travel. Even if you have just one day to go around, you will not feel tired in Alwar as you hop around forts and other places.

Guest post by Aaradhya Singh

Blog: my choize, what’s the best time to visit alwar.

Most of the year Rajasthan remains a hot state, especially from March to July when the temperature crosses 45 degrees Celsius. Since you may want to indulge in entertainment activities in Alwar, summer is not the ideal time to be there unless you can bear the scorching heat of the sun.

After the summer starts subsiding in August, the rainy season begins. It is good to avoid traveling to Alwar during heavy rains because the roads are clogged and many places are closed because of the difficult access and risk to people. However, if the showers are mild when you plan to travel after checking the weather alerts, a little bit of rain is not an issue. On the contrary, the wind is pleasant, and forts look even more beautiful while it drizzles.

The best time to arrive in any part of Rajasthan, including Alwar, is winter. From November to February , the entire town is balmy and dry, but the weather is cold at nights. You can roam around without worrying about bearing the heat or getting wet in the rain. The only downside of traveling during tourist season is that every place is more crowded than usual. Even then, Alwar is a small town that does not attract millions of people. Still, it is better to book your hotel in advance and plan your travels efficiently since you would not like to lose the little time you have.

A few facts about Alwar

The best part about traveling to smaller towns of any country is that they are still pristine when it comes to urban development, something that often takes away the original charm of that place. There is an air of positivity and serenity in Alwar, which lets you relax even while you drive on the non-fussy roads. Traffic is smooth, small-time shopkeepers and peddlers are busy selling ordinary things, and every person you meet welcomes you with a smile. There are hardly any fancy restaurants and cafes here, but you can get the delectable local food from any bistro.

Rajasthani art is present on the walls of schools, colleges, public buildings and roadside fortifications. Many houses have the names of newly wedded couples painted on the exterior walls to celebrate the wedding in their household. These art forms and wall paintings convey a lot about the local culture of Rajasthan and denote that the people of Alwar are still in touch with their roots. When you say local ethos, it is clearly visible all around this little town.

One day in Alwar Itinerary

Just one day, yes, the only day you have is all you need to visit significant places in Alwar, though you need to make sure that you begin your day early in the morning without wasting any time sleeping. Begin your journey on a positive note and a lot of energy. Follow this guide and make the most of your trip even if you’re short on time. These are the top sights and things to do during your one day in Alwar.

Visit Bala Quila or the Alwar Fort

When something as gigantic and ancient as  Bala Quila  has been standing upright since 1550, it is a marvel indeed. You need to reach the Alwar Fort , as they call it nowadays, early in the morning to begin your day and witness the majestic beauty of the monument. Although the forts of Rajasthan are a result of human efforts, they all seem unreal considering the lack of facilities 5-6 centuries ago. The 1000-feet tall fort was home to various dynasties such as the Khanzadas, Pathans, Mughals and Jats.

It is the oldest fort of Alwar, and it spreads over an area of 5 kilometers and comprises 51 small fortresses, 15 large towers, 15 temples and 446 apertures for musketry. You must visit the Sita Ram Temple, Chakradhari Hanuman Temple, and Top Wale Hanuman Ji Temple. The entire history behind this landmark of Alwar is full of confusion and various stories, which is also a reason it arouses curiosity among historians and travelers alike.

Go to the Alwar City Palace

At the base of the Aravalli Range, the Alwar City Palace is nestled exactly beneath the Bala Quila. The City Palace, also known as  Vinay Vilas Mahal , is an absolute marvel of architectural mastery as it showcases a brilliant blend of Rajasthani and Mughal architecture. Jai Pol, Laxman Pol, Suraj Pol, Chand Pol, Andheri Gate and Kishan Pol are the various gates that let you enter the palace. Walls of the City Palace are ornate with mirror work and abundance of murals. Dozens of big and small fortresses and towers enhance the beauty of this place.

The Alwar City Palace is now government property and a museum, which was the idea of Maharaja Tej Singh Prabhakar Bahadur who suggested that the place be recreated in 1940. You can find the royal furniture, armor, manuscripts and many other things in there.

Enjoy a visit to the Siliserh Lake Palace

The Siliserh Lake Palace  has now been converted into a fort hotel. The entry inside the hotel is reserved only for guests, though the lake is open for public. The great span of this lake over seven kilometers makes it an astonishing body of water to enjoy while boating and jet-skiing. In the backdrop, the mountains look even more mesmerizing as you view them from the Lake Palace. If you like the serenity of the place, you can book a room in the Siliserh Lake Palace Hotel and wake up to the chirping sound of birds. If you come during the migratory season, you may even see migratory birds with the binoculars as well.

Explore the Sariska Wildlife Sanctuary

The Sariska Wildlife Sanctuary is snuggled in the Aravalli Mountain Range and extends over an area of 800 square kilometers. Visiting a sanctuary like Sariska means that you get to witness high cliffs, rocky landscapes, dry deciduous forests and grasslands. Rich flora and fauna welcome you to the sanctuary during winter, and you can observe the Royal Bengal Tigers roaming around in significant numbers in the sanctuary. The tigers were relocated in good numbers to this place, and they have adapted to the local environment to become the celebrities of the wild here.

Along with the countless trees and animals, the sanctuary is home to the remains of medieval temples from the 10 th and 11 th century. You can have a panoramic view of the hovering eagles and birds from the 17 th -century castle present on the hilltop.

Hop over to the Sariska Palace

Although you may fall short of time, you may still pay a quick visit to the Sariska Palace because the citadel is located right next to the Sariska Wildlife Sanctuary . The fort used to serve as a guest house for Maharaja Sawai Jai Singh, who would come to the place during his hunting expeditions. The thick forest cover around the Sariska Palace magnifies its splendor. Although the palace has been converted into a luxury hotel, you can still catch a breath for the late evening tea or dinner and call it a day.

Where to stay in Alwar?

When you are in a historical city, you must avoid staying in clichéd hotels. A few forts have been transformed into stunning hotels and are reasonably priced. After enjoying your entire day visiting various places, you can stay at a fort hotel and have a blissful night.

Neemrana’s – Hill-Fort, Kesroli

Since the Hill-Fort Kesroli was initially built as a home to the royalty, it does not feel like a traditional hotel, either. The staff of the inn has done a brilliant job maintaining the old-world appeal of the place while accommodating modern-day facilities for the comfort of their guests. The ground staff and the management are exceptionally polite, which will make your stay even more pleasant. And you will taste the most delicious Rajasthani food here at the dinner buffet. Moreover, you can keep yourself engaged with activities like badminton, chess, carom board and watch TV when you want to relax.

Dadhikar Fort

The perfect blend of natural wonders and modern comforts can be found in the Dadhikar Fort , which is a great place to the stay in Alwar. This hotel is also a restoration of an ancient fort, the charm of which is still there. The compact dimensions of the Dadhikar Fort let you roam around the place several times a day, which also makes sure you do not feel tired. You can enjoy a walk to the village adjacent to the fort and interact with the local villagers, too.

6 Amazing Places to Visit in Alwar (2024) – Go Off the Beaten Track in Rajasthan

So, you’ve been to Jaipur , Jodhpur , and Udaipur and now you’re looking for something more off the beaten track in Rajasthan?

Well, here are some amazing places to visit in Alwar! A hidden gem and easily accessible from Delhi.

Tucked away in the Rajasthani countryside, Alwar gives you a perfect break from the loud noise of the city.

My friend and I did have our doubts before visiting here. It wasn’t exactly recommended in the India guidebooks.

But, in the end, we were pleasantly surprised by what we found and had a hilarious 3-day getaway.

At only three hours away by train from Delhi, it is the perfect little stop for a short weekend break or can provide a gateway to start your Rajasthan adventure!

You can visit forts, palaces, lakes and even go on a tiger safari from here. So, what are you waiting for?

Table of Contents

How to get from Delhi to Alwar?

Alwar is a large district in the Indian state of Rajasthan and so you’ll need to be familiar with where you’re going when planning to stay here.

Luckily, Alwar Junction train station provides a central location to arrive in.

By far the cheapest and quickest option to get from Delhi to Alwar is to catch a train from Delhi or the neighbouring city of Gurgaon. It is only around 3 hours away so is a nice and short picturesque journey.

From here, you can catch a taxi or Auto-Rickshaw to your chosen hotel. I would recommend the Ajmer Shatabdi express train (leaves Delhi train station at 6 am) as Alwar is the second stop.

The picture below isn’t from the Shatabdi train. It was the 2AC sleeper that leaves from Delhi in the afternoon.

There’s something I love about being able to stretch out on a train and watch the world pass me by!

A great website for booking Indian train tickets is cleartrip.com . They provide easy functionality and, unlike the IRCTC (Indian Railway Central booking system), they allow you to book train tickets on the same day!

They do charge a small premium, but if anything saves me from wanting to rip my hair out when booking an Indian rail ticket – I’ll happily pay it. From here, you can easily head on to Jaipur , Ajmer, or back to Delhi.

In fact, we originally booked a ‘resort’ here but changed our minds on arrival due to the rat infestation (ew).

Luckily for us and you, there is a beautiful hill fort we discovered in the nearby village of Kesroli that you will fall in love with!

The Hill Fort Kesroli is officially a ‘non-hotel’ owned by the Neemrana Hotel Group . They specialise in restoring ancient historical properties and transforming them into beautiful heritage sites to spend the night.

There are 23 across India and I would highly recommend you check in to one on your travels.

The first thing I adored about the fort was the fantastic views of the Rajasthan countryside. No traffic, No noise, no pollution. It was bliss. If you didn’t fancy venturing out of the hotel, there’s plenty to keep you occupied here for a staycation.

There’s a pool, spa offering treatments, outdoor games, walking routes, and a library.

Restaurants are mainly a buffet affair with a wide range of Indian and Western choices. Each night there are cultural shows to entertain you while you dine.

Places to visit in Alwar

1. drive to sariska.

I’m not a staycation kind of girl. In fact, I struggle to stay in one place for too long.

So, when we were looking at activities in the surrounding area, there was one that piqued my interest with the hope of ticking another item off my bucket list.

A tiger safari at the Sariska Tiger Reserve.

Now, don’t get too excited now. When I was googling Lonely Planet to find out more about it, it pretty much told me that my chances of seeing a tiger here were next to none. In fact, my chances of seeing a unicorn were more likely than a tiger in Sariska.

It’s a massive reserve at 866km squared and a tiger population of just 13. But, never one to give up on a challenge, we decided to give it a go.

We got a cab from the fort and made the 40-minute journey to the reserve.

We did make a fatal error and arrived at the tiger reserve around midday. Unfortunately, the safari only takes place twice a day. Once in the morning at around 6 am and then again around 3 pm in the afternoon.

Although we didn’t have much success, make sure you check the Sariska Safari website for timings.

2. Sariska Palace

Hopefully, after reading this, you won’t make the same mistake.

But, if you do find yourself in Sariska with nowhere to go before your safari I would highly recommend a visit to the Sariska Palace opposite.

Although its ‘Fusion’ restaurant is something which looks like it belongs in the ’70s, it has air conditioning and a beer! Sweet salvation.

They say you need to pay some money to go in, but if you’re going to dine in the restaurant they don’t charge you.

3. Take a Sariska Tiger Reserve Safari

There were two choices of vehicle for the safari, the gypsy or the canter.

We were first in line for the safari tickets, which was great as we had heard they were limited.

I could tell that the ticket sellers were thrilled with their jobs as they got ready to sell to the crowd. I, myself, didn’t help by pushing my face into the window but it was hot and I just wanted a ticket after that long wait.

The gypsy is an open-air 4×4 and can take up to 6 people at a time. This is the more expensive option at around 600 rupees per person.

You initially pay this to the ticket counter, then you pay some fees directly to the guide after the tour. The total comes to around 1200 rupees.

The Canter is a cheaper option and a massive open-air vehicle which is higher and takes around 20ish people at a time.

Personally, for your best chances of spotting a tiger get the Gypsy. It may be more expensive, but the Gypsy can weave in and out of the jungle and reach the off-the-beaten-track places the tiger may be hiding in.

This is the Gypsy below (yes, I did get the cheesy hat!).

What to expect on your Sariska Safari

We zipped off around the reserve with the other tourists, in the hope of finding one.

Each jeep will go in different directions to spread out. We had seen peacocks, wild boars, a panther hole (but no panther), and deer but no tiger.

Time was running out, it was nearing sunset at 6 pm when we were due to head back to the ticket desk. Our driver told us to keep silent so he could listen out for tiger noises.

My friend and I looked at each other trying not to laugh, surely he was just putting this on for effect? But then, the birds started making a warning call. The next minute, we heard a tiger roar!

Our driver didn’t waste any time, he slammed his foot on the pedal and we zoomed off in the hope of seeing it.

It was one of the scariest yet thrilling rides I had experienced in my life. I was holding onto the frame of the gipsy so tight. The driver certainly had skill!

It created some serious adrenalin as we quickened the chase. Then, behind the bushes in the jungle we finally saw what we were looking for; a beautiful orange and black striped Bengal tigress!

Although we got lucky, I would definitely recommend a visit here even if you don’t see a tiger. The jungle is beautiful to explore.

4. Siliserh Lake

One of the most beautiful places to visit in Alwar is the natural beauty of Siliserh Lake.

It provides stunning views of turquoise blue water, the hills, and beyond.

The best place to take in the panorama view is from the Lake Palace Hotel.

Situated right at the edge of the water, there is a bar and open-top restaurant to dine in while taking in the views.

While we were here, we saw people speed boating! So, if you fancy it – you can get involved.

5. Alwar City Palace and Fort

Centrally located, the Alwar City Palace is a great spot for some Rajasthani history.

It is in desperate need of repair but it is worth a visit if you have time. It’s completely free of charge.

You can start at the massive entrance courtyard and then make your way up to the roof for some great aerial views of Alwar.

There is a museum inside the palace but it charges extra. It really isn’t worth the money, so I would save your rupees.

6. Alwar Palace Lake

My favourite part of the palace was actually situated outside the grounds. It was the water tank and it has to be the most picturesque part of Alwar.

In fact, this was the scene that drew me to it online in the first place.

It was nice just to take a stroll around here. But it was a little awkward getting constantly stared at by the locals.

I really don’t think they get many western tourists visiting, so it was a selfie request at every turn!

Save these places to visit in Alwar for later!

That’s Alwar in a nutshell.

There’s not an extensive amount to do and it’s not built up for western tourism like the bigger cities nearby.

However, it does provide an off-the-beaten-track experience of the Rajasthani villages and countryside.

Make sure you put Alwar down for your next weekend break!

Hi Chitra, thank you so much for reading. I’m really glad you liked the article. Sophie x

I was born in Alwar and is currently in USA. It is so great to hear about a westener travel experience of Alwar. I think Alwar has a lot of offer but sadly the sites are not that well maintained compared to places like Udaipur and Jaisalmer. I also agree with lack of quality accommodation places. Do you think having backpacking hostels in Alwar will help with the tourism?

Hi Kunal! That’s so cool you’re from Alwar. Yeah, it was quite different for a Westerner in comparison to the other big cities of Rajasthan but it does have SO much potential if there was more infrastructure like hostels/hotels and restaurants. Also, if the government did a little more to protect the monuments, it would be a great city and put it right on the map. The palace and temples are wonderful! As it’s so close to Delhi as well, it’s the perfect getaway. Hope you’re keeping well in the States and thanks for reading. Sophie x
