Ministry of Tourism, Government of India Celebrates Visit India Year 1999-2000 : The Desert Adventure (Jodhpur-Jaisalmer-Bikaner-Barmer)

Rajasthan still retains an elusive fairy-tale character. A land where the tales of valour of its medieval Rajput warriors are still sung by its travelling bards.

Rajasthan is the 'Land of Kings'. Where opulent palaces dot the desert landscape and battle-scarred fortresses appear on every hill like sentinels of the past. Here, folk culture still retains all its colour and vivacity. With exuberant celebrations of fairs and festivals. A music that echoes across the desert emptiness and a tradition of craftsmanship with a highly developed aesthetic sense.

Umaid Bhawan Palace, Jodhpur

Begin your desert adventure at Jodhpur, a fortress-city at the edge of the Thar Desert. Then travel to Jaisalmer to see its unforgettable golden fortress. The trade route outpost of Bikaner still retains a medival flavour. While the route to Barmer will take you through typical Rajasthani villages.

The four cities on your itinerary will create a perfect portrait of this exotically-beautiful desert land.
