Mangliyawas of Ajmer

Twenty-six km away from Ajmer is the town of Mangliyawas, which is famous for the 800-year-old tree, Kalpa vriksha. On the Amavasya day of the month of Shravan (the new moon night, in the month of July/ August), the tree is worshipped by thousands of devotees. Devotees tie a thread around the tree in hope of their wishes being granted.
