Picture yourself amidst a kaleidoscope of azure-blue houses nestled against the rugged backdrop of the Aravalli Hills.

Next up, we're heading east to Alwar – where history meets nature in a harmonious dance. Climb the majestic Alwar Fort and let your imagination soar amidst the ancient walls.
For the nature lovers among us, a safari at Sariska Tiger Reserve is a must-do, or perhaps a leisurely boat ride on the tranquil waters of Siliserh Lake Palace to soothe the soul.
