Day Trip to Osian & Khichan from Jodhpur
Description
Get ready for an exciting adventure as we pick you up from your hotel in Jodhpur to embark on a thrilling excursion to Osian and Khichan. Hold on tight because the fun is about to begin!
Once we're all acquainted, we'll hop into our vehicle and hit the road toward Osian. Ever wondered what makes this ancient city so famous? Well, prepare to be amazed as we step into the remnants of its temples, dating back to the 8th to 12th centuries. It's like stepping back in time.
In this desert oasis, we'll get to see 16 Brahmanic and Jain temples. The intricate details and beautifully carved stone designs will leave you in awe. It's hard to believe that these architectural wonders have withstood the test of time. Among the grandest are the Sachchiya Mata temple and the Mahavir Jain temple.
But before we continue our adventure, we'll take a break and refuel with a delicious lunch at a local restaurant. Then, we'll hit the road again, traveling about 75 kilometers to Khichan. This charming town is the temporary home for flocks of demoiselle cranes every winter, thanks to the incredible generosity of the local community. We'll share with you the heartwarming story behind this unique bond!
And here's a fascinating tidbit for you: did you know these migratory birds are featured in many popular songs in the area? We'll reveal more interesting facts about the cranes of Khichan along the way.
After six hours of sightseeing, we'll drop you back off at your hotel in Jodhpur.
