Jodhpur was founded in 1459 by Rao Jodha, a Rajput chief of the Rathore clan. The state of Jodhpur was then known as Marwar. Initially Mandore, served as the capital of this state, however, Jodhpur soon took over that role, very much during the lifetime of Rao Jodha. The city got its name from its founder. Jodhpur is now a very popular tourist destination in Rajasthan and Hotels in Jodhpur Rajasthan deftly host the guests who pour in to the city from different parts of the globe.
Jodhpur was located on the strategic road linking Delhi to Gujarat enabling the flourish of trade in opium, copper, silk, sandals, date palms and coffee. Jodhpur was thus a very important stop on the trade map of India, and it is still a very important centre of trade of locally crafted goods, spices, etc.
