Haldighati
The
extensive terra firma, towards the south west of Nathdwara, this historical
site witnessed the great legendry battle fought between Maharana Pratap and
the Mughal Emperor -Akbar in 1576 AD. See Your AD Here The vast terrain that
was supposedly covered with blood (the sand turned Red in colour) evokes a chill
in the spine till date and envelopes a feel of nostalgia, this was the place
where the heroic Chetak the gallant charger with his dedicated loyalty towards
his chivalrous master (the Maharana Pratap) proved his worth by co-operating
till his last breath.
A 'Chhatri' with delicate white marble is dedicated both to the indomitable
hero and his loyal charger, is note worthy. A jeep drive to this place is rather
interesting.
