History
There are no chronological evidences about the history of the town but it is said that Bhangarh was earlier a flourishing city. The king of Sindh wanted to avenge his embarrassment before the queen of Bhangarh. So he gave up his kingdom and started practicing black magic and other similar acts in Bhangarh. Later the city was destroyed in the conflict between the queen of Bhangarh and the erstwhile king of Sindh. It is believed that the entire city was destroyed overnight after the king of Sindh died cursing the city and its people.
