With palaces that still evoke the grandeur of their regal past, in literally every hamlet, and the Thar desert's never-ending sand dunes that appear like golden-hued paintings, there's no shortage of places to visit in Rajasthan that provide an ideal backdrop to a romantic escape. The Land of Kings—Rajasthan—is well known for its stunning heritage sites, luxurious hotels, scenic lakes and picture-postcard desert stretches that look straight out of Arabian Nights. Hop on a camel to explore Jaisalmer's fabled dunes, explore the exquisite Jal Mahal in Jaipur, sail on Mount Abu's Nakki Lake on a paddleboat or have a candlelit dinner in Udaipur's City Palace—Rajasthan's palette of romantic experiences is kaleidoscopic. More so, if you are on a honeymoon in Rajasthan.
In Jaipur, you will discover the places that will create intimate memories — and in some cases, epiphanies — to last a lifetime. The colourful markets will bowl you over. The palaces will implore you to click the best pictures for those ever lasting memories. And, the aphrodisiac food will fire up the flame of love burning in your heart.
Jodhpur, the blue city, will offer you no less pleasure. For lovers, staying at the Umaid Bhawan Palace, boating at the Kalyana Lake and spending the evening holding hands by the banks of Balsamand Lake are some top recommendations for the itinerary. You haven't really experienced Rajasthan without staying in the City of Lakes, Udaipur. Snuggling in at a cosy room of one of the palace accommodations or homestay havelis is going to be a great kick-off to married life.
At the golden city of Jaisalmer, its landmark sites and the Thar Desert have inspired countless poets and novelists to pen romantic works. Who knows, it could turn out to be an optimal setting for your very own love story? Take a camel ride at the desert, take a walk near the Gadsisar Lake, or go wildcat-spotting at Desert National Park to fully make use of the natural wonders the area has to offer.
And finally, there is Mount Abu, Rajasthan’s only hill station, made for the honeymooners and romance seekers. It is blessed with out-of-this-world natural landscapes and well-preserved historic shrines such as the Dilwara Temples. Because it is not much populated, the ambiance gets especially romantic at night. Drink in the marvellous dusk at the Sunset point, and take a loved-up selfie in front of 15th century Achalgar Fort, an iconic landmark known for its delicately crafted buildings and the awe-inspiring views of the surrounding hills it offers to the beholder.
These highly-ranked tourist places of Rajasthan will impress you with their out-of-the-world vibe, delicious food, and amazing vistas. So, here's your guide to some of the most enchanting places to visit in Rajasthan for honeymooners for an unforgettable outing with your significant other.
