Bada Bagh, located near Jaisalmer in the Indian state of Rajasthan, is a historic garden complex that houses the cenotaphs (chhatris) of the Maharajas of Jaisalmer. The site provides a picturesque view with its array of intricately carved sandstone monuments set against the backdrop of the Thar Desert. Bada Bagh, which translates to "Big Garden," was commissioned by Maharaja Jai Singh II in the early 18th century and later completed by his son, Lunkaran. The cenotaphs here honor the royal family members and are a testament to the region's rich cultural heritage.
