The Sandy Desert of Rajasthan
You are perhaps already familiar with the golden desert of Rajasthan, where the magnanimity of the vast sandy expanses never fail to humble the soul, where everything from sunrise to sunset is a spectacle of colours, and where dark nights are lit by bonfires and stories of nomadic desert lives. Beyond the last major city of Jaisalmer, the desert stretches to the horizon and is littered with small settlements, sometimes with just half a dozen huts to a village, where life is akin to the monotones of the desert, sweltering hot in the day, freezing in the night, evidently difficult, and yet by some measure, heart-warmingly beautiful.
