Situated in the south-western part of Rajasthan in Sirohi district, Mount Abu is unique for being the only hill station in the desert state. Apart from its scenic forests and hills, Mount Abu attracts a lot of religious tourism because of the Arbuda Devi Temple and the famous Dilwara Jain Temple which is known for its exquisite marble architecture.
Here, the Department of Archaeology and Museum, Government of Rajasthan opened a museum in Raj Bhawan (Governors House) in 1965. It exhibits a wide range of interesting artefacts, antiques and contemporary objects.
