Land of golden shimmering sand dunes

[Rakesh Sharma]

The name Bikaner, itself evokes a lucid picture of pure brilliance and magic of the sun kissed desert. This enchanting city of Bikaner in Rajasthan has been credited as the 'Golden sand dunes City' because of the huges golden shimmering sand dune near ladera village ramparts by the setting sun of Rajasthan. The view of Bikaner s colossal fort thrusting heavenwards out of the barren desert scape is impressive, and the mirage doesn't diminish, even as you approach the bastions, and lose yourself in the labyrinthine streets and bazaars snaking around. Local colour and conviviality prevail over the rustic and solitary terrain, moistening the medieval town with special drops of history. the romantic sand dunes, the best way of exploring their unbelievable charisma is by a camel safari.
