Kota

  1. Kota has a rich cultural heritage, visible in its old Rajput-style architecture that dates back to the 13th Century, palaces, temples and the British influences in Victorian-style buildings. The surprise is that Kota has a history — industrial towns with power and atomic plants aren’t supposed to, belonging as they do to the genre of sci-fi cities. From a tourist's point of View there are a lot of places to visit in Kota.
