sites, look at the spectacularly beautiful dunes that stretch
out into the horizon as undulating mountains of sand. Climb
the sand dunes and then roll down again...it is an
unimaginable fun. Walk along the parched bushes and explore
the mystery of sands und erneath your feet, how the foot sinks
into the sand, leaving ephemeral impressions and the way sand
seeps into the shoes. Sand is everywhere, go whereever and
whenever . The inimitable part being, that the sun kissed
sands doesnot cling to the frame, but will eventually peep
through every part of the attire. See that how the Spartan
sands keep changing color and the dunes keep shifting every
day giving a feel of an artist who is indulged in creating a
masterpiece on the brown barren canvas of the Thar. A
mesmerizing experience indeed. Take an exhilarating ride up
and down the sand dunes in a 4x4 SUV vehicle. The ride is a
real adrenaline trigger as the vehicle snakes amidst the cuts
and curls of the sand dunes, procreating butterflies in
stomach at every minute.
The colourful Evenings at the Camps
After one has pulverised rippling sand dunes, a
memorable evening awaits in the camp accommodation. Enjoy the
primeval energy of the Arabian Nights blended in the
atmosphere with the flames of bonfire and lyrical movements of
the dancers, dressed in their traditional "gaghra-choli",
pulsating on the rhythms of the shrill folk songs. With the
increasing beats of the drums, the dancers whirl faster and
faster around the bonfire, just an aesthetic sight that has to
be seen to be believed. As the evening progresses, dinner is
served in the traditional Indian seating arrangement. Dinner
with delicious barbecue is accompanied by music from the
"Manganiyar" musicians, creating mesmerizing euphony with
their 'dholaks' and 'sarangis'. Take a sip of chilled beer
while sittting on the capacious Indian style beds called
"charpais" (jute beds) as you tilt your head and see the
sprawling desert sky bewildering everyone with millions of
twinkling stars. As the temperature drops and the ambience
chills, enjoy the romance and enigma associated with such a
night.
