Jamwa Ramgarh also popularly known as the Ramgarh, is a subdivision of the Jaipur district located on State Highway Number 55, about 28 kilometres (17 mi) East-North of Jaipur city. It is Best known for Ramgarh Lake, which is located on the outskirts of town.
Ramgarh Lake

The dense forest surrounding the lake and the nearby areas is home to a wide range of wildlife including lions, chital, and neelgai, and was declared a wildlife sanctuary by the Government of India in 1982.
Jamwai Mata Temple
This temple is located downstream from Ramgarh Lake in greenery bound area. Jamuvai mata is the kuldevi of badhera's (khandelwals). The temple of goddess was built by Rao dulherao of kachhwaha clan in jaipur near present Ramgarah Lake and later it is called Jamwa Ramgarh by the name of goddess Jamuvai.Previously this town is known as 'manch' and there was a temple of budhvai mata ji and the statue is still there in the same temple.
