Jhalawar or the Land of the 'Jhalas', is situated on the
banks of the holy river Chandrabhaga. A three day long fair
is celebrated every year in the month of Kartik (Oct-Nov)
when an air of celebration pervades the whole area.
Chandrawati, located on the river bank is considered the
most sacred spot by the devotees.
