The memorials themselves are slightly interesting--more interesting is the location just on the edge of the old city on a hill with a beautiful view to the west and to the east. Sort of a photographer's delight. There are plenty of places to sit and enjoy the view too.

This place is where cenotaphs are made for the Brahmins. Since it is situated on a small hillock you get open to desert view towards West which is why this is an excellent place for enjoying sunsets.

It is after all a memorial for the Vyas community,but the chhatris(umbrella shaped structures) are a delight.It is said that every grandson before his marriage,build the memorial of his grandfather by constructing a chhatri.Two distinct architectural styles-Hindu and Islamic are visible.Young boys are available to offer their services as guides and are recommended.
