Jaipur Travel Guide on a Budget- @ Rajasthan Tour

The travel distance between Pushkar to Jaipur is about 3 hours by road. Jaipur, also named the Pink city, is the capital city of Rajasthan and the busiest city of this state. Even a must visit city for many first timers to Rajasthan, especially who come for the golden triangle trip (Delhi-Agra- Jaipur) to get a hint of Royal Indian culture. But let me be very clear that an only visit to Jaipur cannot be enough to get the flavour of this vivacious state in India. Jaipur can be a tiddly glimpse of the saga which can be to- some- extent the brief trailer and this I am saying after a long 10-12 days tour of the state (even this 12 days were very less to see the majors)

After Ajmer Sharif, the journey to Pushkar takes another 1-1:30 hours. By the time we reached out hotel, it was half an hour left for A.M. to take to take over. For sure the entire days strenuous touring, needed for some comfort food and a soft and cleanly done cozy bed.

Pushkar is a small town in Rajasthan, very famous for its 1 week long yearly camel fair. A huge sand clad fair ground gets alive during the fair season, otherwise that same place looks like a deserted stadium for rest of the year. Now-a-days camel ride or camel cart rides are widely available here as well just like Jaisalmer, only I doubt about the evening dance show. Apart from this, the prior attraction is Lake Pushkar after which the town has been named.

On the way to Pushkar from Udaipur, there are two places to stop by, and both are quite a distance away from each other. So in order to cover both in one day, you have to start earlier than usual in the morning, 7 am will be a good choice. Undeniably it’s going to be a by default tiring day , but it’s no loss.

Once started the engine, the first stop would be Chittorgarh, which is about 2 hours distance from Udaipur, unless you are taking a small break for the first major meal of the day which is also quite important.

On the way to Udaipur from Mount Abu, an en route stop at Haldighati should not be missed and overlooked. Considering the long told saga this historical place is carrying till date, a visit here is worth one’s time and every bit of interest.

Haldighati Museum:

Haldighati is a legendary place and no way to be given any second thought while planning an itinerary. Haldighati has its glorious milestone in Indian History. This was the native land of the Maharanas. Though history proudly remembers Maharana Pratap Singh, but the story begins from Maharana Udai Singh II, father of Pratap Singh. After the unexpected assassination of Ratan Singh II, by his brother; infant Udai Singh, the son of Late Ratan Singh II, was sent to Bundi with utter secrecy and safety without anyone’s notice, as the nurse in charge of Maharana Udai Singh II diverted the attention of the enemy by sacrificing her own new born, letting him get slaughtered by the killers and made them believe that Udai Singh II was dead, just to protect the future of Mewar.
