Begun is a city and a municipality in Chittaurgarh district in the state of Rajasthan, India.

From that time onward, Begun came under the rule of the Chundawat Sisodia Rajputs of Mewar. The town is regarded as one of the historic settlements of the Chittorgarh district. One of Mewar's important rivers, Brahmani, flows through Begun. Begun also has a fort which is surrounded by a small river.
