Rangeelo Rajasthan: Padharo Mhare Des
Jan 3, 2024
Uncategorized
Tumblr media
Having lived in Rajasthan for 18 odd years and some 24 years in NCR, I have always wanted to explore the western side of Rajasthan which includes Jodhpur and Jaisalmer. This land of abundant sun, sand and soil was still mysterious to me and evaded me for long until I got an opportunity to go on a road trip this winter of 2023.
Gliding through the glazing smooth butter roads starting from Mumbai expressway in Gurgaon to Jodhpur in Rajasthan, the drive was very smooth except some parts near Ajmer where some re – laying of roads was being carried on but that failed to dampen my enthusiasm in any way.
We touched down Jodhpur by 3 pm and checked into Rani Mahal, an erstwhile haveli run by a mother daughter duo. This 450 years old haveli purchased by Sri Vinod Sa Bhandari against her wife’s wishes was turned into a hotel in 2014. Little did she know that it would become her lifeline and lifelong companion in the time to come when her husband passed away in corona in 2020. From fighting all odds, facing all challenges to supporting her very young kids and putting up a bold facade and protecting her grieving and vulnerable self, she rose to the occasion and took the reins of the hotel in her hands. Smt Nisha Bhandari along with her daughter Ms Mitali Bhandari,is right here at the hotel in the morning to attend to her patrons, asking for feedback, supervising the property and gradually learning the tricks of hospitality industry day by day. Located against the majestic Mehrangarh fort in Nauchowkia, Fatehpur road, Rani Mahal provides a very unique and authentic experience to the guests of living in the city and of the vibrant markets around.
Tumblr media
The interiors of Rani Mahal are quite impressive. It houses 19 rooms, all of which are done differently and gives you the feel of what life the maharajas and maharanis of the bygone days must have lived .Breakfast at the terrace against the Mehrangarh fort in the winter chill and sunshine is a different experience altogether . Dinner again at the terrace with live folk music playing adds a dash of charm to your excitement .Lunch is served in the cosy ambience of the ground floor .
One can visit Toorji ka Jhalra, a stepwell constructed in 1740 which is very near to Rani Mahal. One will be surprised to see a very modern market that has come up there in the midst of the old city, near clock tower for the tourists; catering to all your couturial needs and handicrafts for your homes.
A 5 mins walk from Rani Mahal will lead you the major tourist attraction of Jodhpur, yes, you got it right! It’s the Majestic Mehrangarh Fort. Indulge in some adventurous activities before indulging in its historic grandeur .The zip lining at 6 levels is a major draw for the adventurous lot. You get an amazing experience of zipping through lakes, above the fort and enjoy some good aerial views of the fort and the city.
Tumblr media
Zip-Lining at Mehrangarh Fort (Agency- Flying Fox)
Once inside the fort, you travel back to old times and remain awestruck looking at the weaponry, the relics, the vibrant costumes and turbans ,the massive palaquins, the huge howdahs used by the members of the royal family. The grandeur and architectural beauty of the fort including the sheesh mahal, Phool mahal have to be seen to be believed.
Tumblr media
The restaurant in the fort offers you some really good Rajasthani cuisine like dal- bati churma, traditional thali besides other cuisines . I can vouch that all over Rajasthan ,you will always find good food . The spices used are qualitatively very good but again you will have to savour it to believe it.
Village safari is another tourist attraction that you can pack in your itinerary. The jeep picks you up from the designated point and the driver cum guide takes you to the Bishnoi village enlightening and immersing you with the different aspects of their culture . Not many know that the Bishnoi community of 15 000/ people have a place in history as we read about the ‘chipko movement’. Some 439 bishnois had laid down their lives to prevent the felling of Khejari trees which are sacred to them .Not many know again that it’s the same community that was behind Salman khan’s imprisonment for the infamous black buck hunting case .They believe that their guru Jambkeshwar has been reborn as Black buck, hence the respect for the creature is something that they will never compromise with. Bishnoi, as they got the name from Hindi words for 20 and 9. They believe in 29 principles, hence the name of the community. The foremost principle of their culture is that they don’t burn the dead bodies but bury them as they believe that a lot of wood is burned and wasted in the process. They worship trees, nature and wildlife. Secondly, they hold women in high esteem. The female mukhiya has a distinct appearance from the rest of the ladies in the family like she wears a red skirt, a red turban, a nath and a heavy anklet .
Tumblr media
The male mukhiya wears a white turban. He prepares very diligently a drink made of opium which is used to relax their bodies and also on occasions like wedding. They do not take any kind of medicines ,whatsoever ,but rely only on opium for any aches or illnesses but they understand that moderate consumption is the key.
As you navigate further into the open village, you can see black bucks, nilgais, peacocks chinkaras and foxes openly roaming and grazing without fear . You also get to see the live workshop by durry weavers.A durry can take 140 hours of weaving by 2 people on the loom. Cotton and camel wool are used for durry making. The former can fetch double the amount while the latter is cheaper and non- dyeable too.
Block printing live workshops are very interesting to witness. It’s amazing to see vegetable colors and natural dyes being used to transform some plain drab cloth into a vibrant and valuable printed cloth. It’s notable that different castes like chipa, Patels, Bishnois are identified by the different clothes they wear . It’s like understanding that clothes are their I – cards.
As we move to our another district Jaisalmer on roads paved to perfection, I see vast stretches of barren land sans any high rises , my eyes unaccustomed to see. As far as you can see, there are herds of cattle, sheep, cows, goats claiming their land ; turbaned men on charpoys leisurely pulling out the day with no haste ; carefree kids playing some local games and women carrying haystacks on their heads to be used as fodder for the cattle or fuel for cooking.
Enroute Jaisalmer, one can see dates farms and vendors selling so many different varieties of dates that we may not even have heard the names before.
There are certain interesting things you can do like jeep safari, dune bashing, camel riding and parasailing on the Thar desert against the backdrop of the rising sun or against the sun set. Both of these times offer exclusive experiences to cherish.
Tumblr media
As I bid adieu to the desert , my heart longs to come back once again and re witness its charm and glory ; savour it’s traditional food ; immerse in the folk music and dance  and imbibe the simplicity of this land of sand.

rooiboos: 3 facts about my family
lady grey:favourite outfit?
Hmmm this is difficult, I'd have to say a shirt over a tshirt or a jacket over a tshirt I feel like those are good outfits. If you're wearing a shirt as an over or just that, you have to roll up your sleeves, dems da rulez. But also since I've been wearing formals regularly I feel like a good set of formals is also amazing
oolong: ideal romantic partner?
ooh smart, funny, can take a joke, have similar political beliefs(I feel like that's usually overlooked) but also cheesy (sometimes), understanding, supportive, someone who i can really have good conversations with, like stare-at-the-stars-on-the-rooftop conversations about everything and nothing at all and i think at last mutual respect and trust
peppermint:what’s your favourite holiday and why?
honestly, anyone where i get to rest. but maybe diwali most, because food and sweets 😋
rooiboos: 3 facts about my family
my sister just completed her masters in comp sci
my mom makes really cool festival items like diyas and rangolis and torans and stuff and people love them
my dad was recently appreciated as the treasurer of our panchayat

From Taj Mahal’s First Light to Old Delhi’s Lively Streets
Tumblr media
Taj Mahal Sunrise and Old Delhi Tour: A Journey Through India’s Icons
India holds some of the most iconic sights in the world, with the Taj Mahal and Old Delhi Tour being standouts. The Taj Mahal, one of the New Seven Wonders of the World, is best experienced at sunrise, when its white marble glows with the soft morning light. Following this serene start, travelers can dive into Old Delhi, a bustling area rich with history and culture. This unique tour combines the elegance of the Taj Mahal with the vibrant energy of Old Delhi, providing a perfect snapshot of India’s past and present.
Why Choose a Sunrise Tour of the Taj Mahal?
A sunrise tour of the Taj Mahal offers an exceptional view of this architectural marvel. Arriving early, you’ll be greeted by the soft morning light that illuminates the Taj’s marble facade, making it appear as if it’s glowing from within. This peaceful time also means fewer crowds, allowing for a more intimate experience. Mornings at the Taj Mahal provide an ideal opportunity for reflection and quiet appreciation. The early hours highlight the detailed artistry of the building and the peacefulness of its gardens, setting a tranquil tone for the rest of your day.
Highlights of a Taj Mahal Sunrise Experience
The Taj Mahal is a masterpiece of Mughal architecture, and sunrise showcases its beauty like no other time of day. As the sun rises, the marble structure gradually changes colors, from a cool white to shades of soft pink and orange, creating a breathtaking visual effect. Visitors can explore the surrounding gardens, designed with symmetry and calm in mind, where early morning mist adds a mystical touch to the experience. This serene start is ideal for taking memorable photos and enjoying the monument in a calm, inspiring environment before the crowds arrive.
Exploring Old Delhi: A Walk Through Time
After a magical morning at the Taj Mahal, the next stop is Old Delhi. This part of the city is a vibrant hub filled with historical sites, traditional bazaars, and local delicacies. Old Delhi offers a sharp contrast to the serenity of the Taj Mahal, buzzing with life and energy. It’s a place where travelers can experience the true essence of Indian culture, from its intricate mosques to its bustling markets. Every street in Old Delhi has a story to tell, showcasing a blend of Mughal architecture, colonial influences, and modern urban life.
Jama Masjid: A Grand Historical Mosque
One of Old Delhi’s major highlights is the Jama Masjid, India’s largest mosque, built in the 17th century by the Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan. Its massive courtyard can hold thousands of worshippers, and its red sandstone architecture, combined with white marble, is truly stunning. Visitors are welcome to explore the mosque’s grand hallways, intricately decorated domes, and towering minarets. From the mosque’s upper reaches, you can also get an impressive view of Old Delhi’s busy streets, giving a glimpse into the city’s vibrant atmosphere.
Chandni Chowk: The Heart of Old Delhi’s Bazaar
A trip to Old Delhi is incomplete without a visit to Chandni Chowk, one of the busiest markets in the city. This bazaar is a sensory delight, offering everything from colorful textiles to fragrant spices and delicious street food. Walking through Chandni Chowk is like stepping back in time, with narrow alleyways packed with shops that have been family-run for generations. Sampling the local snacks, such as parathas and jalebis, is a must, as they give a taste of Delhi’s rich culinary heritage. Shopping here is an adventure of its own, with countless options for traditional Indian wear, jewelry, and souvenirs.
Making the Most of Your Taj Mahal and Old Delhi Tour
To fully enjoy a day exploring the Taj Mahal and Old Delhi, it’s best to start early, allowing ample time for each location. Comfortable footwear is essential for navigating Old Delhi’s winding streets. Consider hiring a guide for the day to ensure you don’t miss out on historical details or hidden gems. A guided tour offers a richer understanding of each location’s cultural significance and provides insights that enhance the overall experience. From marveling at the Taj Mahal’s morning glow to sampling authentic food in Chandni Chowk, this tour is crafted to leave a lasting impression.
Tips for Planning Your Taj Mahal Sunrise and Old Delhi Tour
Start Early: Arriving at the Taj Mahal before sunrise ensures you get the best views and a more peaceful experience.
Dress Comfortably: With so much walking, especially in Old Delhi, comfortable clothing and shoes are essential.
Hire a Local Guide: They can offer insights and help navigate Old Delhi’s crowded spots, ensuring a smooth and informative tour.
Stay Hydrated: Delhi can be warm, even in the early hours, so remember to drink water throughout the day.
Photography: If you’re into photography, bring a good camera to capture the unique lighting of the Taj Mahal at dawn and the vibrant colors of Old Delhi’s markets.
This itinerary, pairing the calm elegance of the Taj Mahal with the energetic pulse of Old Delhi, is designed to provide a well-rounded experience that captures India’s historical depth and vibrant present. From the quiet beauty of sunrise to the lively sounds of the bazaar, every moment of this Taj Mahal Sunrise And Old Delhi tour promises memories that will last a lifetime.
