Itinerary

1
Jaisalmer - Khichan - Osian - Jodhpur Meet the tour guide, who will pick you up from Jaisalmer at your desired place. Drive through the countryside, 175 km beyond Jaisalmer, towards Phalodi, the city of richly carved havelis and temples. Nearby, there is the village of Khichan, which is a regular host to the flocks of Demoiselle Crans (locally called Kurja). They come in thousands due to amiable conditions and protection given by the villagers. Their duration of stay is about 5 to 6 months, after which they go back to their breeding grounds in March-April. Many folk songs are based on these migratory birds. See the ancient sacred temples of Osian. Osian was a great trading center between the 08th - and 12th centuries. Today it is a desert oasis with sixteen Brahmanical and Jain temples, beautifully sculpted and designed, most of which have stood the ravages of time. The largest of these are Sachchiya Mata Temple and the Mahavir Jain Temple, which are both functional. Drive to Jodhpur city, and you will be dropped off at your desired place.
