BIKANER'S OLD CITY

A maze of ochre walls, carved balconies and everyday life.

The old city rewards an unhurried walk. Narrow lanes open into havelis, markets and gateways where the colour of the desert seems to live in every facade. It is a place to notice small details: latticework, painted doors, passing cycle rickshaws and the warmth of local hospitality.
