Aath Kambh Chhatri, one of the buildings possessing great historical significance, is an eight pillared dome that stands on the northern side of the town. Lying between the premises adjoining the western side of the vegetable market, the chhatri is believed to be constructed in 1776 on a Rajput’s cremation site. Over the years, the windblown sand has virtually buried the base of the structure, while the interiors are still adorned with beautiful murals and stone carved paintings.
One of the prominent paintings in the interiors depicts an early European mercenary walking carrying a musket. One can also see find huge memorial domes of Mantri, Bagla and Lohia merchant families that are raised on the northern side of the town. Also, a visit to Godia Chhatri can be interesting, which is also located in the northern side of the town.
