Jodhpur
Call
it by its many names and they will not do Jodhpur justice. An oasis in
the arid Thar Desert, Jodhpur is the second largest city in the state of
Rajasthan. Representing this colourful city with shades of blue, Jodhpur
has a history that is rich and a present that beckons strongly to the
discerning tourist. Forts and palaces, temples and havelis, culture and
tradition, spices and fabrics, colour and texture, Jodhpur has them all
and in plenty.
Situated in western Rajasthan, Jodhpur has long attracted both the
domestic and outside tourist. It not only offers tangibles, in terms of
what you can see and buy but also fills one with a sense of history and
the splendors of an era gone forever. The hospitality of the locals, the
demure women, the colourful turbans -all set against the unmerciful
desert is something to feel, not just see.
