Bundi is a town that you may have a mental image of yet find difficult to pinpoint in the real world. Bundi seems like something out of a fairy tale, with blue buildings, lakes, hills, bazaars, and a temple at every turn.
Nobel laureate Rudyard Kipling is said to have written part of his famous novel Kim in Bundi, and he said of the Bundi castle, "Jaipur Palace may be called the "Versailles of India." The House of Strife in Jodhpur, with its grey towers on red rock, is the work of giants, but the Palace of Bundi, even in broad daylight, is the kind of palace that men build for themselves in their nightmares — the work of goblins rather than mankind.'
