Built in the year 1540, by Jam Rawal, who belonged to one of the most respected Royal dynasties of Gujarat, the history of Jamnagar can be said to be one of the richest histories in the entirety of the province of Gujarat. It is after Jam Rawal, that the city of Jamnagar was renamed to its present name. The previous name for the city was Nawagarh, a name which can be literally translated to mean New City. The Bohra Hajira in Jamnagar in Gujarat in India is one such monument, which can add pleasure to your visit to Jamnagar.
