The Rathore dynasty of Barli traces its descent from Rao Maldeo of Marwar (Jodhpur). Erstwhile Darbar Devi Das ji founded Barli in 1675. Coming from such an illustrious lineage, it is not surprising that the rulers of Barli were great legendry warriors. Darbar Lal Singh ji of Barli was famous for his valour and chivalry against the Marathas in the 18th century.
The family has now thrown open the gates of their fort to discerning visitors and converted the fort into a Heritage Hotel. The fort has been lovingly restored and refurnished retaining original character.
