History
Tijara Fort was commissioned in the 19th century as a Rajput-Afghan stronghold in Alwar district and remained incomplete for generations, its ramparts and palaces never fully occupied. Neemrana Hotels, the heritage group founded by Aman Nath and Francis Wacziarg, acquired the ruin and finished the fort as a palace-hotel, opening Tijara Fort-Palace in the 2010s. The house now offers around forty rooms in restored courtyards above the mustard fields of Tijara, a short drive from the Delhi-Jaipur highway.
