Rajasthan : Oasis in the Desert
The large landscape of Rajasthan is a collage of juxtaposes filled with diversities and colors of different shades and hues. Think desert and forests, sand dunes and lakes, forts, palaces and temples, malls and bazaars, folk music, handicrafts and food, Rajasthan has all on offer and more.
Though Rajasthan is so much more than just the great Thar desert, it is primarily renowned as a desert state. Hence, the first obvious thing not to miss would be exploring the desert, itself. The cities of western Rajasthan such as Jaisalmer, Bikaner and Jodhpur offer you a perfect base to soak in the beauty of the magnificent windswept swathes of desert along with the scenic sand dunes and discover the culture and harsh lifestyle of the nomads of the Thar.
