Your trip to Alwar is incomplete without visiting the cenotaph of Moosi Maharani. You can read it's history online. All I have to say is this cenotaph is a hidden gem of the princely state. With the gleaming emerald lake facing the cenotaph and the royal museum on its adjacent side, Moosi Maharani ki Chhatri offers you breath taking sight. Its a little difficult to find this place if you lose GPS signals. But sheer magnificence of History. Can be more maintained. The place is open 24 x 7 minus any security.

Good Place and nice view from the top but nothing to see there. lots of people are sleeping because you get fresh air there. Also seems like lover points for couples. Bad smell at the lower floor.

The monument was undergoing repairs during our visit. But the surroundings were very peaceful . Though the pond next to the chhatri needs to be cleaned .. This tourist spot is an ideal stopover for a photo shoot post visiting the city palace since its in the same compound

Despite being a beautiful monument, it is very poorly maintained. It is a hidden gem that, for reasons that I cannot comprehend, does not seem to be very popular with tourists. There were hardly any people there, despite it being a weekend.
It doesn't seem to be on the priority list of Rajasthan Tourism either, because the place is poorly maintained, although it is a marvelous piece of architecture. The cenotaph is made from marble and red stone, and is a brilliant example of the Indo-Mughal style of architecture.
However, it lacks cleanliness. There is stray cattle and stray dogs around the place, and one has to be careful not to step into something unpleasant, as animal droppings littler the compound.
And yet, the place still retains its beauty. Next to the cenotaph, there is a lake, which is again poorly maintained and it seems that it has not been cleaned in decades, as the colour of water is green.
With a bit of effort, the place could be turned into a major tourist attraction. In fact, had it been better kept, it would deserve a 5-star rating. Definitely worth one visit.

Moosi Maharani ki Chhatri lies in the center of alwar. It is just behind the City Place. Hardly 5 mins. Well maintained and is very clean. Nice place to click photos and spend your day. Must visit when go Alwar

The place is just situated next to Alwar Museum and City Palace. It has beautiful piece of architecture, inside the dome the work done is worth seeing. It is unfortunate that the place is not well maintained, the pigeon droppings are spoiling the marble on the floor, the bawri next to it is full of fungal growth and thus does not gives a good feeling, One should visit the same.

We had difficulty finding this place even though we were using google maps. After a point the map leads you to a dead end. Luckily we could ask locals. But that being said, the entrance was from a residential block. If I hadn’t seen this place on TripAdvisor, I would have completely missed it.

The chattri is in the huge open space in the middle of the City Palace, which also holds a weirdly green lake (some sort of algae?), so can be visited at the same time. It's a pretty spot where one could stop for a rest, or a picnic. Do go into the middle of the chattri (you have to take your shoes off) and look up into the dome, which is decorated.

I had read about this monument on the internet and during our one-day trip to Alwar, I made it a point to visit this place. The entry is through the City Palace, which houses some government offices. We were shown the way by some local people.
It is a beautiful monument. There is a pond beside which was in a poor condition, covered with algae. However, the view is terrific from this place. Do visit this place on your trip to Alwar.

I stumbled upon this monument just by chance as I had visited Alwar collectorate premises for some work. It is a beautiful & interesting cenotaph built in red sandstone & white marble in the year 1815 named Moosi Rani ki Chatri. The Queen of Alwar - Moosi Rani, choose to self immolate herself on her husband Maharaja Bhakhtawar Singh pyre . Maharaja Vinay Singh build the cenotaph in memory of his parents. The double-storeyed structure with Aravalli hills in the background looks stunning. The top floor is carved and designed entirely in marble. The interiors are adorned with some beautiful mythological paintings and frescoes on its ceiling. Adjacent to this monument there is a pond, which is full of algae & debris. What a shame that such a beautiful place is unclean and neglected ,while all the administrative office of the district is located in the vicinity!
