Jodhpur, the Clock Tower, erected from the maragià Sardar Singh in 1910 in order to imitate English. This tower surpasses the Sardar Bazaar, in the old quarter. Jodhpur is called the blue city. This dominant chromatic comes from the fact that the majority of the rooms belonged to bramini, that they venerate Krishna, from the blue face. The tradition lasts because this color attenuates the sultriness and maintains the mosquitos far. It is the second city of the Rajasthan, and one of sunniest than all India: It is developed to the feet of a majestic fortress, in red sandstone, the fortress of Mehrangarh; the old quarter is a maze of tight and lively alleys. On the road of the fort, the arrogant temple in white marble Jaswant Thada
