Golden Triangle by Train


The train route we took...
Some of our trains were air conditioned sleepers which are great but one of the 6 hour rides was on what we like to call the cattle car...not so good...
We started in Delhi and took the train to Agra to see the Taj Mahal. The next day we took a train to Jaipur-the pink city- for a couple of nights. From there we went to Jaisalmer-the golden city-with a very cool old fort where many people still live made of sandstone on the hill(this is where the camel safari started). Our last stop was Jodpur-the blue city- where they have an old village with lots of blue houses with a fort on a hill. In Jodpur we only had a day so we just shopped the textile markets and saw how many locals make bracelets,scarves,etc...very eye opening...
