The royal crematorium of the Bikaner royal family, the Devi Kund Sagar situated 8 km in the east of city has several exquisite cenotaphs (Chhatris). Each Chhatri is dedicated to the memory of rulers of Bikaji dynasty and are situated on the exact place where they were cremated. The white marble chhatri of Maharaja Surat Singh is quite a marvel of Rajput architecture and is known for the spectacular paintings on its ceiling.
