  About Kishangarh

Kishangarh is part of the Ajmer district in the desert state of Rajasthan, India. The small city was originally called Kishanpur. However, during a film's shooting, a temporary fort was built in the area as part of the production.

This eventually led to the name of the city changing from Kishanpur to Kishangarh. The city's airport plays as the perfect connection for people who wish to visit Ajmer.
