Popular for Forts, palace hotels, lakes and desert colour

What you can do

  • In Jaipur, take Amber Fort at opening time and the City Palace after lunch
  • In Jodhpur, give Mehrangarh a full half day, it is the best preserved fort in the state
  • In Udaipur, take the sunset boat on Lake Pichola and eat on a rooftop after
  • Break the Jodhpur to Udaipur drive at Ranakpur's marble Jain temple

Food to try

Rajasthani food was built for the desert: dal baati churma, gatte ki sabzi, ker sangri and laal maas for meat eaters. Jodhpur does mirchi bada and makhaniya lassi, and Udaipur is the calmer place for a long dinner.

Culture & customs

Rajput history is in everything from the forts to the turban colours, and folk music and puppetry are still performed in the havelis. Bargaining is expected in the bazaars, and modest dress is appreciated in the old cities.

Best time to visit

October to March

Winter days are perfect and nights in the desert are cold, so carry a jacket. April to June regularly passes 45C, and the Pushkar fair in November is worth planning dates around.
