About this place
Bikaner sits in the starkly beautiful Thar Desert of north-west Rajasthan, a city where narrow, winding streets open onto vibrant bazaars and centuries-old havelis. It offers travelers an authentic taste of desert life, from its legendary Bhujia Bazaar to the hum of three-wheeler autos navigating sand-tested lanes. The city’s compact size and strong culinary traditions make it a rewarding stop on any Rajasthan itinerary.

Planning Tips
- Arriving by road or rail — Bikaner is well-connected by train from Delhi, Jaipur, Agra, and Mumbai, and a hired car from Delhi is a reliable option for a flexible journey.
- Getting around the city — Plan on using three-wheeler autos, as the narrow lanes designed to manage blowing sand are impractical for regular cars.
- Eating like a local — Head straight to Chai Patti for celebrated kachoris and samosas, then wander Bhujia Bazaar to sample the city’s namesake savory snack.
