The Gatore Ki Chhatriyan is the royal crematorium grounds meant for the Kachhwaha community that ruled the land centuries ago. Chhatriyan are elevated, dome-shaped pavilions used as an element in Indo-Islamic architecture and Indian architecture.

Located at Gatore, a short distance from the centre of Jaipur, the cluster of royal tombs make a soothing and beautiful place where anyone with a meditative bent of mind can sit back, relax, and ponder over the mysteries of life for hours.

Gatore Ki Chhatriyan was chosen by the founder of Jaipur in the 18th century for cremating the members of the royal family. It is located on the foothills of Nahargarh Fort enclosed by the Aravalli Hills.

The cenotaphs of the royals are omnipresent all around the complex which appears to be compact open-air palaces and ornate towers. The structures bear the spots where the former ruling kings were cremated.
