RAJASTHAN GUIDE: JAIPUR

Rajasthan’s beautiful Pink City Jaipur, was the stronghold of a clan of rulers whose three hill forts and series of palaces in the city are important attractions. Known as the Pink City because of the colour of the stone used exclusively in the walled city, Jaipur’s bazaars sell embroidered leather shoes, blue pottery, tie and dye scarves and other exotic wares. Western Rajasthan itself forms a convenient circuit, in the heart of the Thar desert which has shaped its history, lifestyles and architecture.

With numerous tourist attractions such as forts, palaces, historical places, markets, and museums, there is a lot to explore in the Pink City. Jaipur City Palace, Jantar Mantar, Amer Fort, Jaigarh Fort, Hawa Mahal, Jal Mahal, and Nahargarh Fort are just a few places that you cannot miss in Jaipur. Also, Jaipur is a good place for shopping: you will find Rajasthani jewelry, local arts and crafts, Jodhpuri juttis, block print textiles, and other handicrafts galore.

Jaipur also has some of the finest hotels in India. In fact, there are probably more amazing heritage hotels, for every budget, in Jaipur than anywhere else in India.

The city of Lakes, Udaipur is a lovely land around the azure water lakes, hemmed in by the lush hills of the Aravalis. A vision in white drenched in romance and beauty, Udaipur is a fascinating blend of sights, sounds and experiences – an inspiration for the imagination of the poets, painters and writers.

Udaipur is a popular tourist destination in India. The lakes, palaces and lively workspaces and culture attract foreign and domestic visitors.  Udaipur have three interconnected lakes – the Fateh Sagar Lake, the Lake Pichhola and the smaller Swaroop Sagar Lake; along with forts, palaces, temples, gardens, mountains and narrow lanes lines withdrawn with stalls, relives the reminisces of a heroic past, valor and chivalry. The Udaipur City Palace is the crown jewel. Picturesquely located along the banks of Lake Pichola, a tour of the palace will give you a glimpse into the world of the Mewar Rajputs. There are also many other beautiful attractions in this city such as Sajjangarh Fort, Ambrai Ghat, Badi Lake, Bagore Ki Haveli, and some of the finest luxury hotels in the world.

RAJASTHAN GUIDE: BIKANER

A city – awesome and beautiful. A vast expanse of rippling sand and scorching sun.An arid, rocky scrubland. It is situated on an elevated ground, surrounded by a seven-kilometer-long embattled wall marked by five gates. The Rathore prince Rao Bikaji, the liveliest and most enterprising son of Rao Jodhaji of Marwar, founded Bikaner in 1488 AD. The harsh desert surrounds this rich city, no doubt few could gather courage to venture into this part of the globe.

Located in the midst of Thar Desert, Bikaner is a “cultural paradise and a traveller’s haven”. Bikaner with its magnificence in architecture, art and culture is filled with colour, festivity and cultural marvels.The city will mesmerize you with the camels sauntering the beautiful sand dunes, its ancient palaces and forts. Rightly called as one of the three great desert kingdoms of Rajasthan, the dazzling city boasts of old-world charm, opulent havelis and depicts a pleasing bygone era of the Rajputs. Best known as the “camel country” for breeding some best-known riding camels, Bikaner also happens to house one of the only two models of the biplane used by the British in World War 1.

One of the most underrated Rajasthan tourism spots to explore, Bikaner is known as the City of Havelis and is home to more than 1,000 havelis — more than any other city. This is the reason why tourists from all over the world visit. It is also known for the annual International Camel Festival. At the Camel Farm, you can learn more about this fascinating and hard-working animal. From Junagarh Fort to Rampuria Haveli, to Karni Mata Temple (famous for rats), there are a lot of unique attractions to explore in Bikaner. Also, the old town is filled with red sandstone buildings and makes it the Red City in Rajasthan.

What famous Rajasthan foods should I try?

Rajasthan food is delicious and unique in preparation. Since most Rajasthan villages and towns experience a lack of vegetables and water, they have come up with dishes that can easily last for a couple of days. Generally, Rajasthan food is made using buttermilk, dried lentils, wheat flour, and beans while oil and red chilies are used to preserve the food and reduce the requirement of water. Each region in Rajasthan has its own special dish that you should try.

One of the signature foods of Rajasthan is Dal Baati Churma. You will find this delicacy in all cities and towns of Rajasthan, especially in the desert areas. Baati is basically hard, unleavened bread that doesn’t need much water for its preparation and can be used for a few days. It is eaten with dal and churma, made from jaggery/sugar and ghee.

For vegetarians, Gatte ki Subzi and Ker Sangri are the perfect local dishes to try here while non-vegetarians cannot miss out on Laal maas, a spicy mutton curry. For your sweet tooth, you can try the signature dish Ghevar which is basically a disc made from flour, ghee, and milk. Personally, I feel Malai Ghevar in Jaisalmer is the ultimate dish to try in Rajasthan.
