Khoh


Khoh, also known as Khogong, was the capital of the kingdom of Amber which was located in the Dhundhar region of Rajputana. Which was located just five miles to the east of Jaipur city and was ruled by the Chanda clan of Meenas. Rao Chandrasen Chanda abandoned Mahishmati city and established a kingdom here. It was the capital of the Chandas till the 11th century and of the Kachhawahas from the 11th to the 13th century.

History

Khoh has been the historical capital of Dhundhar, which was ruled by the Chanda clan of Meenas. Dulha Rai, the last ruler of the Kachchhapaghata dynasty, attacked it and defeated the Chandas. Dulha shifted his capital here from Dausa, which was later changed to Amber by Kakil Deo. But some sources attribute the change of capital from Khoh to Ambar to Rajdeo who was the third in succession after Pajawan.
