Whenever it comes to visiting India for weekends or short holidays, the first name that comes to mind is Rajasthan, the land of colors and kings. If you have only two days left from your busy lifestyle and you want to get acquainted with the real soul of Rajasthan and its glorious history in this short interval, then by doing a little strategic and smart planning you can make this trip memorable for a lifetime. The area of Rajasthan is very large and there are countless things to see here, so it is impossible to visit the entire state in a short trip of two days. In such a situation, you should choose any central and easy route like Jaipur, Amer or Ajmer-Pushkar, where historical buildings, ancient forts, magnificent architecture and the complete flavor of Rajasthani culture can be found at one place. When the walls of these buildings recorded in the pages of history tell their own stories, every tourist cannot remain without being mesmerized.
For a short trip of two days, there can be no better option than the capital of Rajasthan ‘Jaipur’. It is very easy to reach Jaipur as it is easily connected to Delhi, Mumbai or other major cities of the country by air, rail or road. You can start the first day of your journey from the historic ‘Hawa Mahal’ located in the heart of the city, whose 953 jalousie windows and sandstone craftsmanship leave tourists in awe. Immediately after this, you can head to the grand ‘Amer Fort’ built in the lap of Aravalli hills, where you get goosebumps after hearing the history of Sheesh Mahal, Sukh Niwas and the palaces of Raja Man Singh. Seeing the sunset view of the entire Pink City from Jaigarh or Nahargarh Fort in the evening is a magical experience in itself, which can captivate anyone’s mind.
You can start the second day of your two-day Rajasthan trip from the world heritage site ‘Jantar Mantar’, where even the people of the modern era are stunned to see the scientific accuracy of the ancient astronomical instruments. The ‘City Palace’ situated very close to it still preserves the priceless stories of the royal history of the royal family and their lavish lifestyle, the ancient costumes and weapons kept in its museum mesmerize the history lovers. In this short trip to Jaipur, if you do not taste the famous traditional dishes like ‘Dal Bati Churma’ and ‘Ghevar’, then your trip will be considered incomplete. Buying Rajasthani Bandhej sarees, mojadis and beautiful handicrafts from the narrow streets of Johri Bazaar and Bapu Bazaar adds to the experience of this trip.
This short journey of two days may be short in terms of time, but the stories of bravery, love and sacrifice hidden in the walls of the historical buildings here will be imprinted on your hearts and minds forever. If you want to make this short trip more comfortable, book hotels in advance and use local cabs or autos to save time. The hospitality of the people of Rajasthan embodies the true spirit of ‘Visit My Country’, which draws every traveler to this land again and again. Then what is the delay? This weekend, grab your bags and set out on this beautiful, historical and magical journey of Rajasthan.
