17 Top Tourist Places to Visit in Rajasthan

Don't Miss These Classic Rajasthan Destinations

Rajasthan is one of the most visited states in India. It's not surprising because it shows India at its most colorful, iconic and exotic best. Most of the things that come to mind when you think of India can be found in Rajasthan—palaces, forts, desert, camels, and elephants. Don't miss visiting these top tourist places in Rajasthan.

The "Pink City" of Jaipur forms part of India's renowned Golden Triangle Tourist Circuit and was recently declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Not surprisingly, the city is one of Rajasthan's most popular tourist destinations. It has many famous forts and palaces, with most of them boasting evocative views and elaborate architecture. Staying in Jaipur is particularly enjoyable. Accommodations are reasonably priced and many have been converted from heritage properties, giving guests a very regal experience! Jaipur is an outstanding place to go shopping too.

Udaipur is often said to be the most romantic city in India, as it's filled with expansive lakes and palaces. The landmark City Palace Complex , which stretches along the eastern shore of Lake Pichola, dominates the city and the royal family still lives in part of it. Many personal royal heirlooms, family photos, and other memorabilia are displayed in the City Palace Museum , giving Udaipur a very regal feel. You can even stay in the City Palace! Alternatively, for those on a budget there are heritage hotels by the lake with amazing views, such as the Jagat Niwas Palace hotel.

Explore the places to visit near Udaipur such as mighty Kumbhalgarh and Chittorgarh forts.

Affectionately called the "Blue City" because of its blue painted buildings, Jodhpur is the second largest city in Rajasthan. The walled old part of the city is presided over by Mehrangarh Fort , which provides the best outlook across Jodhpur's blue buildings. It's one of the largest and best maintained forts in India. Inside are a number of ornate palaces, a museum, and restaurant. There many inexpensive yet characterful places to stay in Jodhpur with views of the fort. It's refreshing to do nothing but relax on their rooftops and soak up the atmosphere.

Bishnoi is a community of nature worshipers only 45 minutes or so from Jodhpur and can be covered in a day trip. Bishnoi Village Safari organizes excursions and accommodations.

A remarkable sandstone city that rises magically from the sand dunes of the Thar desert, Jaisalmer looks like it's straight out of an Arabian Nights fable. Its mesmerizing ancient fort, built in 1156, is perched high on a pedestal overlooking the city. Inside the fort is alive and spellbinding. It boasts palaces, several temples, and some elegant havelis (mansions), as well as shops and other residences. These top things to do in Jaisalmer cover the best of the city and its surroundings. Stay at a hotel with a fort view or a desert camp.

If you're keen for a desert camel safari experience but without the crowds and commercialization, Osian is an ideal alternative option. This small town is about an hour and a half north of Jodhpur, on the way to Bikaner, and is surrounded by several sand dunes. Intricately carved stone temples dating back to the 8th century are interesting too. Stay at Osian Sand Dunes Resort and Camp or Reggie's Camel Camp .

For most of the year, Pushkar is a sleepy little holy town that attracts a lot of backpackers and hippie types. However, it really comes alive for a couple of weeks in October or November, when the Pushkar Camel Fair hits town. Pushkar is worth visiting at any time of year if you want to chill out. Sadly, the town isn't like it used to be though. These days, Pushkar is much more westernized and tourist-focused. The priests by the bathing ghats (steps) are very forceful in demanding donations. Avoid that area, and head to the Pushkar market for some fun shopping instead!

The remote and quaint desert town of Bikaner receives less tourists than many other prominent destinations in Rajasthan because of its out-of-the-way location over five hours north of Jodhpur. The main attractions are the atmospheric walled Old City and fort. Bikaner is renowned for the rather startling Karni Mata rat temple nearby as well. The Karni Mata Festival, held to worship the rats there, is one of the quirkiest festivals in India. A Camel Fair also happens in Bikaner every January. Stay at the exceptional Narendra Bhawan heritage hotel for an unforgettable trip! It's one of India's most beautifully restored heritage hotels.

Nagaur lies about half-way between Jodhpur and Bikaner, making the town a convenient destination to break your journey. Its massive 12th century fort, Ahhichatragarh, has been restored to its former glory by the Mehrangarh Museum Trust and won the UNESCO Asia-Pacific Heritage Award for Culture Heritage Conservation in 2002. The fort hosts the World Sacred Spirit Festival in February each year. The Nagaur Cattle Fair -- touted as the second largest in India -- is an added annual attraction in January or February.

Shekhawati Region

If you're an art lover, or even someone who's into architecture and history, the Shekhawati region of Rajasthan is well worth including on your itinerary. This unique region is often referred to as the world's largest open air art gallery, with old havelis (mansions) having walls adorned with intricate painted frescoes. Staying in one is a highlight! Shekhawati is located in the Delhi-Jaipur-Bikaner triangle, and is refreshingly free of tourists!

Pali Region

Rural tourism is growing in Rajasthan and the Pali district, between Jodhpur and Udaipur, is perfect for visitors who want to explore Rajasthan beyond its cities. Bera is one of the top destinations there due to the prevalence of wild leopards, which roam the rugged terrain and can be spotted on safari. At Jojawar, the 300 year-old Rajput fort has been converted into a heritage hotel and draws visitors. Kesar Bagh is a luxury option there. Chanoud Garh is another 300 year-old fort-palace turned exquisite heritage hotel in the Pali district. However, it doesn't get anymore out-of-this-world than stunning Lakshman Sagar heritage hotel. Alternatively, Culture Aangan has homestays in Pali. You'll find village life to be fascinating. You can even attend a shepherds' morning opium meet!

Although increasingly popular with travelers, Bundi also often gets overlooked as a tourist destination in Rajasthan due to its off-the-beaten path location between Jaipur and Udaipur. It's a captivating place to visit, with its lakes, temples, markets, miniature paintings, and blue houses similar to Jodhpur. This relatively laid-back town is dominated by the extraordinary and imposing Bundi Palace, which protrudes out of the hillside. The ancient, winding lanes of the Old City are fascinating to wander through. Bundi also has around 50 step wells and a ramshackle fort above the palace.

Kota and Chambal

Less than an hour southeast of Bundi, Rajasthan's third largest city -- Kota -- sits alongside the Chambal River. Once you've seen its palaces, temples and museums head out to explore the National Chambal Sanctuary and take a boat ride along the river. It's home to rare wildlife such as the gharial (a long-snouted, fish-eating crocodile) and Gangetic river dolphin. Bhainsrorgarh Fort boutique heritage hotel was once a royal abode and has an enviable position atop the cliff. The view is breathtaking! Plus, the 9th century Badoli Temples are nearby. Kota is famous for its Dussehra festival and fair in October.

Ranthambore National Park

Ranthambore National Park is one of the best places in India to spot a tiger in the wild. In contrast to many national parks in India, Ranthambore is also really accessible and easy to get to. This makes it very popular (and, unfortunately, it's been facing a lot of tourist pressure). As well as nature, the park is home to the formidable 10th century Ranthambore Fort. It's a huge structure that contains ruined pavilions, monuments, and three Hindu temples. The park is packed with history, having witnessed many battles played out on its land, and the rise and fall of many rulers.

If driving from Agra (or Bharatpur) to Ranthambore, consider stopping at Karauli and staying at isolated Ramathra Fort heritage hotel on the way.

Birding enthusiasts will be delighted by Keoladeo Ghana National Park in Bharatpur, just over an hour east of Agra on the way to Jaipur. One of India's top bird sanctuaries for bird watching and a UNESCO World Heritage Site, it was formerly a duck hunting reserve of the maharajas. More than 370 species of birds can be found there, including a large congregation of non-migratory resident breeding birds.

Also on the Agra-Jaipur Road, Abhaneri has the deepest and possibly the most photographed step well in India . Chand Baori was built between the 8th and 9th centuries by King Chanda of the Nikumbh dynasty of Rajputs. However, locals will tell you a more spookier story of it being constructed in one night by ghosts! The step well extends approximately 100 feet into the ground, down 3,500 steps and 13 levels. A two-day Abhaneri festival takes place every year in September against the evocative backdrop of Chand Baori to promote rural tourism.

Interested in more forts and palaces? Alwar can be done on a day trip from Delhi , as it's only three hours south of India's capital. Attractions include an 18th century City Palace complex and government museum (closed Mondays) inside it, which showcases the extravagant lifestyle of the kings. However, it's Lake Sagar and the many chhatris (dome-shaped pavilions) behind the City Palace that are most visually impressive monuments. Above the City Palace sits 16th century Bala Quila, notable for being one of a few forts in Rajasthan to be built before the rise of the Mughals.

Another popular sidetrip from Delhi, Neemrana was the third capital of the descendants of Prithviraj Chauhan III, king of the Rajput Chauhan dynasty. It's located in Rajasthan's Aravalli Hills, about two and a half hours southwest of Delhi on the Delhi-Jaipur Highway. The main attractions there are rambling 15th century Neemrana Fort Palace hotel perched on the side of the hill overlooking town, and zip-lining .

Mount Abu is the only hill station in Rajasthan. It's situated 4,000 feet (1,220 meters) above sea level near the Gujarat border, about three hours (160km) from Udaipur. The British took a liking to Mount Abu because of its comfortable climate, and they relocated the headquarters of their political Rajputana Agency there from Ajmer in 1857. Mount Abu has a reputation as a honeymooner's haven but Indian families flock to the area as well. However, it remains an offbeat destination for foreigners. These top things to do in Mount Abu are centered around enjoying the great outdoors.

The exquisite architecture isn’t only confined to the palaces and forts as Rajasthan also boasts impressive Hindu & Jain temples like Dilwara Jain Temples and Eklingji Temple.

A Rich Melange of Dances, Songs, Rides & Colors!

For culture aficionados, there are a number of fairs and festivals in Rajasthan to witness. The flamboyant manner in which even the cattle fairs take place in Pushkar and Nagaur is truly something to behold. Some of the most famous tourism festivals that showcase the rich traditions, customs, folk dance and music of the state are the Desert Festival, Bikaner Camel Festival, Nagaur Fair, Pushkar Fair, Elephant Festival, Mewar Festival, Mount Abu Winter Festival, Gangaur Festival and Teej.

Rajasthan Also Boasts a Rich Wildlife!

Rajasthan, even though the hot and arid place, is rich in wildlife tourism. It offers several opportunities for tiger sighting and birdwatching. Some of the famous wildlife sanctuaries and national parks of the state are Ranthambore National Park, Sariska National Park, Keoladeo and Mukundra Hills National Park. It is blessed with a rich variety of vegetation and animal & birds species. To spot the Royal Bengal Tigers, Ranthambore National Park and Sariska National Park are the most famous wildlife destinations in Rajasthan.

Home to indigenous water birds and migratory water birds, specifically the Siberian Crane, the Bharatpur Sanctuary also boasts many species of mammals like Sambar, Chital, Nilgai and Boar. It is the major tourist spot for most of the ornithologists today during hibernal season. Apart from these, Rajasthan is home to a large number of leopards, blackbuck, great Indian spotted eagle, and marsh crocodiles.

Go Shopping : From Jewellery to Paintings!

An indispensable part of the culture of Rajasthan is the handicraft skills, shopping for which is an experience to have. The state is famous for its jewellery pieces, and is one of the largest centers for hand cut gems in the world. Gold and silver jewellery is extremely famous, along with Kundan and Meenakari styles of ornaments. The gold work on glass, called Thewa is also quite a popular thing to buy in Rajasthan.

Another shopping worthy article in Rajasthan are its miniature paintings that have a Mughal influence to it. These paintings have intricate detailing and come in different styles like Mewar, Bundi, Kota, Marwar, Bikaner, Jaipur and Kishangarh. An ancient art of scroll painting called Phad also makes for one of the best things to take back home from Rajasthan.

One can get the best Mojari from Jaipur, Jodhpur, Barmer and Jaisalmer along with musical instruments made out of leather.

Daal Baati Churma to Laal Maas : Savour the Rich Cuisine of Rajasthan!

Influenced with the parched region of Rajasthan, extreme climatic condition and limited availability of water and vegetation, the Rajasthani Cuisine has evolved out of the unique cooking style and pugnacious lifestyle of its natives. From the signature dish of the state; Dal Bati Churma to the popular street snack; mirchi ke pakore, from the generous use of spice and ghee to the prominent use of the variety of lentils and legumes, Rajasthani food is a fine treat for which the tourists travel even thousand miles.

Starting from different kinds of breads like Batis, Missi roti, and Jowar, Bajra and Makke ki roti, to go with exceptionally tasty curries like Gatte ki Sabzi, Papad ki Sabzi and Kadhi Pakora. The pungent tidbits and accompaniments like Moong Dal and Pyaaz ki Kachori, Bikaneri Bhujia, Bajre ka khichda, Kher Sangri, and Lehsun ki Chutney, and the wind-up digestive Butter Milk elaborates the menu even more. And not to forget the sweet wonders like Churma, Lapsi, Malpua, Ghewar, Alwar ka Mawa and the long lasting Gond ke Laddoo. Though the region is predominantly vegetarian, the influence of Rajputs non-vegetarian food habit can be seen in the cuisine with the presence of delicacies such as Laal Maas, Jungle Maas, Khad Khargosh and Safed Maas, that in a way completes the menu.

Luxury Holidays and Royal Hospitality!

For luxury holidays, Rajasthan tourism has a decent number of heritage hotels that along with offering incredible hospitality to all its guests also cater to the fantasies of honeymoon couples.

You can also stay at the heritage hotels, which were once palaces of the princes and maharajas but were later on converted into heritage hotels. The major percentage of hotels are adorned with exotic murals; original artifacts; king sized beds, manicured gardens; mirrored bar; sunlit corridors and most modern style with the convenience that were once the properties of the reigning monarchs. Some of the most famous heritage hotels in Rajasthan are Leela Palace, Taj Lake Palace, Umaid Bhawan and Jal Mahal Palace. The fabulous exteriors, spectacular interiors and hospitality normally reserved for royalty are some of the experiences in store for you at these heritage hotels.

Rajasthan Overview

Rajasthan geography.

The state of Rajasthan is located between the Thar Desert and the Aravalli Mountains, making it one of India’s standout geographies. Its capital is Jaipur, which along with six other cities make up its main provinces. These are then further divided into thirty-three districts. Geography has played a big part in shaping the state in almost all spheres of life, as you’ll discover to your delight on a Rajasthan tour.

Head out to the sand dunes and you can do everything from camel riding or dune surfing by day and camping under the stars at night. Visit the jungles and you’ll see beautiful creatures big and small. Look up craggy hillsides and you’ll see beautiful forts clinging on. And discover reflections of this colourful state, no matter which of its lakes you peer into.

As the largest state in India, Rajasthan has more physically diverse areas than any other state. There are rolling dunes in the west rocky mountains in the middle and fertile plains in the east. Tourism in Rajasthan capitalizes on these geographical features.

In the state, surface water resources are only about 1% of the total surface water resources in the country, making it one of the driest states in the nation. A system of rain-fed rivers in the state comprises 14 significant basins subdivided into 59 sub-basins.

Luni River, which derives from the western slopes of the Aravalli Range at Ajmer, flows through semi-arid transitional plains into the Rann of Kutch and the Indian Ocean, and Banas and other streams rise on the eastern slopes of the Aravalli range and join the Chambal.

Rajasthan Climate

As India’s desert state, climatic conditions can get quite extreme at different times of the year in Rajasthan. There’s the blistering heat of summer, with temperatures reaching as high as 50 degrees. Though early mornings and late evenings can still be pleasant, this is still one of the shoulder seasons for Rajasthan tourism. Though you can always head up to the cooler climes of Mount Abu, if this is your preferred time of visit.

Meanwhile July to September sees the much-needed arrival of the monsoon, breathing fresh life into this usually semi-arid land. If you’re looking to go birding, this is the best time to visit Rajasthan . Winters arrive by mid-October and stay till around March, offering ideal day temperatures and expectedly cold nights — but with a few layers you’ll be fine! This is also when most outdoor activities and festivals come to life, promising a fulfilling getaway.

The summer season in Rajasthan begins in March. The climate remains dry and hot during the summer months, and temperatures gradually rise in April, May, and June. A few regions of Rajasthan, such as the western and eastern Aravalli Range, and other areas, such as Bikaner, Phalodi, Jaisalmer, and Barmer, experience temperatures of levels. It even reaches a maximum temperature of 49°C during the summer. Winter nights in Rajasthan are cold, with temperatures ranging from 20°C to 29°C.

Fortunately, Rajasthan has a few places like Udaipur and Mount Abu, which are great places to escape in summer to avoid the hot, blazing sun. The summer temperatures at these destinations are 38°C and 31.5°C, respectively. As night falls, temperatures drop down to 25°C or 22°C.

The most severe heat is experienced in the state's arid west and semi-arid midwest parts in June.

Rajasthan Culture

Culture has just the same appeal as any other facet of Rajasthan tourism. Arguably the country’s most vibrant and welcoming society, with roots that travel back to ancient times, the Rajasthani people are a mix of communities, beliefs and backgrounds. There are royal descendants on one hand and wandering nomads on the other. There’s growing urban districts within the same cities that hold the most antiquated landmarks. There are folk arts, crafts, dance, music — you name it! This is a place that cherishes its heritage, displays it with pride and offers experiences of it in the most intimate ways. And rest assured that all age groups will be greatly entertained throughout.

Pushkar, Teej, Makar Sankranti, with their many kite festivals, Diwali, Diwali, Teej, and Makar Sankranti are all places to savor in terms of culture. Jaipur's bazaars provide a window into the state's rich handicraft tradition, such as bandhani (tie and dye). Besides attracting big names in publishing, the Jaipur Literature Festival has also made its mark in literature. Dance and folk music are essential aspects of the culture here. Daal Baati Churma, the lentil dish with an explosion of flavors, and Laal Maas, a mutton specialty, are popular dishes.
