Mount Abu Hotels
Between the Himalayas and the Nilgiri mountain ranges, the highest place (about 1700 MSL) is Mt. Abu is a fascinating hill station of Rajasthan. It is a living example of an inextricable mix of religion and tourism. Located in the southern end of Aravalli mountains, Mount Abu is a summer retreat. It is well-known for its Dilwara Jain temples of the 11th century, and it is also a pilgrim centre. Sages like Vasishta lived here. About the origin of Mount Abu there is a mythological story. The story is that Abu rescued the sacred bull Nandi here and therefore the place got its name.

A verdant oasis in the desert!
Mount Abu is one of the popular jain pilgrimage sites. The road to paradise has never been easy and this one is no exception. Bumping along an uneven road, hitting your head against the smooth roof of a deluxe bus you need to close your eyes and revive the temptations of your destination. Conjure up the lushness of Mount Abu, which all tourist guides announce is 'the paradise of Rajasthan'.
