Once a city of huge strategic
importance, Kota has found its stride in modern Rajasthan as a major
industrial and chemical centre, and so remains refreshingly free from
tourist hustle. Still, it has a spectacular palace with an excellent museum
and lovely murals. The revitalising Chambal River, filled with small
crocodiles and plied by boats of all sizes, is the state’s only permanent
river, and sustains a wealth of mostly unexplored terrain. Kota is also
famous for kota doria, exquisite saris woven.
Kota Airport has had
no scheduled services operating since 1999. The nearest international
airport is Jaipur International
Airport situated 250 km away from Kota.
