Ornately carved lattice work, friezes and intricate 'jharokas' give an aesthetic appeal to Fort Chanwa of Luni. Architectural symmetry provides depth to the fortress carved out of the famous red sandstone of Jodhpur. These features exquisitely capture the romance and grace of bygone age. The fort composed of a lyrical complex of courtyards, towers, water-wheels, passages and unexpected stairways to secret pavilions and panoramic roof tops spanning the village below and the Thar horizon beyond. The traditional paintings on the wall harmoniously reflect the skill of the master craftsmen and the bygone days. Economic
Times We sat on the green lawns of Fort Chanwa, Luni and felt like we had stepped into a fantasy. The soft floodlit battlements of the fort hotel, 35 Kms from Jodhpur, rose above us even as two musicians sat in a pavilion and played some hopelessly romantic ballads under moon.. SOCIETY
Fort Chanwa is the focal point of the small charming village of Luni in Rajasthan. It is the ideal retreat for all those who hanker for a chance to get away from their urban lives, and to relive the romance and grace of life now extinct. SAISON
