Jaipur's Amber Fort and City Palace anchor the 'Pink City,' while Udaipur's lake palaces and Jodhpur's blue-washed old town, ringed by the imposing Mehrangarh Fort, round out Rajasthan's classic circuit. Jaisalmer's sandstone fort rising from the desert and camel safaris into the surrounding dunes are the westernmost draw, and the Pushkar Camel Fair (usually November) is worth timing a visit around.
Try dal baati churma and Rajasthani thali, hearty desert-region staples.
