Fort Chanwa of Luni is an exceptional example of Elegance and Symmetry in Indian architecture of the last century. The entire fortress is carved out of the famous red sandstone of
Jodhpur and with its ornately carved latticework friezes and intricate Jherokas it exquisitely captures the romance and grace of a bygone age.
The Chanwa Fort Luni is composed of a lyrical complex of courtyards, towers, water-wheels, stables, passages and unexpected stairways to secret pavilions and panoramic roof
tops spanning the village below and the Thar horizon beyond. The traditional paintings on the walls harmoniously reflect the skill of the master craftsmen and the bygone days.
The village of Luni nestles in the shadow of the Chanwa Fort walls and is a hub of activity with its many artisans fashioning metal, clay or wood into intricate forms and demonstrating
the skills passed down over the centuries by their ancestors.
The Chanwa Fort Luni has been beautifully restored to its former glory by its owners Maharaj Dalip Singhji, the youngest son of H.H. Maharaja Umaid Singhji and his wife Rani Madhu.
Each room has been created and decorated with its own particular charm and the many courtyards, verandahs and gardens all offer a setting and ambiance set to capture your heart.
