 It’s a dream destination that’s rich in culture and offers plenty to do.  Boasting an abundance of activities, colorful towns to explore, warm people to befriend and history to re-discover, it’s no wonder so many travelers are drawn to it. 

Rajasthan is also the site of the world’s oldest mountains and astounding deserts where sacred temples, magnificent forts and tiger reserves are nestled.  They attract thousands of faithful who make the yearly pilgrimage to the Dilwara Sanctuaries. 

Although the region enjoys four marked seasons, tourists prefer the months of October through March when the temperatures are generally comfortable.  Summers tend to be hot and winters are certainly chilly.  But no matter when you choose to visit, you’re in for the time of your life.

With amazing attractions such as the Ranthambhore National Park featuring man made lakes and icons dating to the 11th century, you’ll be in constant amazement.  And don’t miss the fact this park is a remarkable example in animal conservation. 

To further impress out-of-towners, the Bird Sanctuary hosts close to four hundred species and a bounty of rare varieties that are only found in the region.  Witness Siberian cranes, jungle felines, golden jackals and fishing cats among many. 

The portfolio of historic landmarks is extensive, but of the not to be missed, Amber Fort tops the list.  Offering a distinct 16th century design with a blend of Hindu and Muslim characteristics, it’s a place to admire.  See the imposing palace made of marble and crimson sandstone, its unique entry ways and the imposing hills that surround it. 

Go for a stroll along the banks of Lake Pichola and let the beauty of the City Palace enchant you.  After you tour the interior quarters and capture its regal allure you’ll understand why it’s the most frequented attractions in the country. 

Treat yourself to one of the many delights afforded by the region.  Travel by camel or on elephant back and be awed by sand dunes, tranquil villages and stunning woods.  Let the endless sunshine and cool breezes caress your skin as you uncover a destination blessed with scenic beauty and a wealthy heritage.
