Commencing the tour of Mandalgarh, let us proceed south, skirting Chitor (both on insulated rocks detached from the plateau), thence by Jawad, Dantoli, Rampura,¹ Bhanpura, the Mukunddarra Pass,² to Gagraun (where the Kali Sind forces an entrance through its table-barrier to Eklera)³ and Margwas (where the Parbati, taking advantage of the diminished elevation, passes from Malwa to Haraoti), and by Raghugarh, Shahabad, Ghazigarh, Gaswani, to Jadonwati, where the plateau terminates on the Chambal, east; while from the same point of outset, Mandalgarh, soon losing much of its table form, it stretches away in bold ranges, occasionally tabular, as in the Bundi fortress, by Dablana, Indargarh,⁴ and Lakheri,⁴ to Ranthambhor and Karauli, terminating at Dholpur Bari.
