Kishangarh Dumping Yard

Kishangarh, an ancient business hub known for its Bani Thani Paintings, marble-made sculptures, and temples, has recently transformed into one of India’s largest marble markets. Surprisingly, this transition began in 2003 when the idea of a dumping yard was conceived by RICCO and the Kishangarh Marble Association. Initially intended as a place to dispose of leftover marble waste, the amount collected grew so vast that it formed a towering mountain-like hill.
