Where else
can you relax in comfort & witness the history of
India passing by ...
It's a journey worthy of kings. No wonder the experience
is labelled the Palace on Wheels. With its cream saloons,
embellished with intricate designs, chug through Rajasthan
on a journey through the former royal kingdoms of this
state. Once ruled by kings whose presence lingers on
in forbidding fortresses and fairytale palaces, now converted
into museums, hotels, and restaurants where retainers
serve truly royal repasts. The 14 coaches of the Palace
On Wheels are named after former Rajput states. Each
evokes visions of those royal kingdoms. The names are
romantic, mesmerizing... Kota, Jaipur, Udaipur, Jaisalmer,
Jodhpur, Bikaner, Alwar, Sirohi, Kishangarh, Bundi, Dungarpur,
Bharatpur, Jhalawar and Dholpur. It has been rated one
of the ten best luxurious train journeys in the world. |
