Must See Places In Rajasthan

https://driveindiabyyogi.com/2022/10/15/must-see-places-in-rajasthan/ is something that we should all do once in a lifetime. Its landscapes, its smells and colors, its people, its nature, its traditions, its palaces, its history…there are many reasons for us to make a trip to India . And one of the unavoidable visits on this trip is Rajasthan.

Rajasthan, a territory of marajás, palaces and jungles, was the home of the Rajputas, warrior princes, who were vassals of the Mongols and the Persians. We find here an enormous desert, a natural border between India and Pakistan, and an extension of dunes and scrub, with villages of adobe houses and walls decorated with floral and geometric paintings.

Only in this region do you have enough palaces and fortresses to lose yourself for two weeks, between mustaches, turbans and marble delicacies. Visiting these must see places in Rajasthan can be done comfortably by using a Taxi Service in Jodhpur or Jaipur and travel all around Rajasthan, enjoying the breath taking views along the way.

Udaipur

Romantic fantasy also known as the “City of Lakes” or the “Venice of the East” because it has several lakes and a spectacular palace on an islet, which today houses a luxurious Hotel. A city built around Lake Pichola where you will fall in love with the palaces of the Thousand and One Nights and the temples whose silhouettes are reflected in the waters of the lake. In Udaipur we can also enjoy the bazaars where we can buy the most elaborate handicrafts . Must-sees are the City Palace, the Lake Palace and the Garden of the Maidens .

Jaipur

One of the most important visits to do in Rajasthan . Jaipur, also known as the Pink City due to the color of the buildings in the oldest part of the city, is home to such majestic places as the Hawa Mahal or Palace of the Winds . Built by the Maharaja Sawai Pratap Singh, this beautiful place served for the women of the Maharaja’s harem to see how daily life went on in the streets of the city without being seen.

Jaisalmer

The city of gold founded around the fort built in the Thar desert in 1156, was mainly a military post. Its geographical location allowed the city to control the main trade routes to Arabia and North Africa. It experienced increasing prosperity that attracted wealthy merchants. They built sumptuous houses, sandstone dwellings, which give it its nickname.

The best thing about Jaisalmer for fans of the real thing is:

Desert Festival. January or February. Mister desert and his mustache.
