What makes Osian a must-visit destination?

Osian is a desert town located at around sixty-five kilometers drive from Jodhpur. It is the headquarters for Osian tehsil and Bikaner, Jaipur and Jodhpur are the nearest cities from this ancient town. 
It is renowned for its rugged landscapes and glittering sand dunes that are a visual treat for the eyes. The vast layers of sand, desert plants, and gushing wind make it one of the most breathtaking destinations for the visitors. Located at the edge of the Thar desert, you can experience the remote desert life over here. 

Osian City is also known as the Khajuraho of Rajasthan owing to the presence of tons of breathtaking temples that are renowned for their architectural magnificence and stunning design. Sachiya Mata Temple and Mahavira Temples are the most popular temples in Osian City, where you can seek spiritual enlightenment and bathe in the sense of divinity. You can also visit Harihara Temples that are dedicated to Lord Harihara and are resplendent with sculptures.

There are tons of enthralling activities that you can enjoy in Osian City to raise your adrenaline level and create the best memory of your life. Camping under the twinkling stars in the Thar Desert is one such adrenaline rushing activity that you must try if you're in Osian City. You can also enjoy a jeep safari that will give you a chance to explore the hidden areas of the desert and meet the locals to know about their traditions and culture.

Osian city is known for having extreme temperatures, so it's best to plan a visit to this ancient city between November to February, during which the temperature becomes extremely pleasant, and you can enjoy all kinds of outdoor activities. During January, the temperature drops down to around 0 degrees leading to extremely cold weather.

we booked this 3 days & 2 nights package of jodhpur and desert camping. we had a blast during our trip and collected so many beautiful memories of this beautiful city and the divine desert….... we visited the umaid bhavan and the jaswant thada were beautiful examples of ancient architecture. we offered prayers at harihara temple, vishnu temple and kali temple and felt blessed…... our second-night stay was in osian village, right in the middle of the thar desert, and it was the ultimate experience. we saw cultural performances, enjoyed around the bonfire, and had delicious rajasthani dishes at the campsite…... we also opted for camel safari, which was worth every effort…….. the best part was watching sunset and sunrise views in the desert and witnessing changing colours of sand dunes and sky. we enjoyed every single moment spent there….. Indeed, a fantastic trip organized by thrillophilia!

This half an hour long Camel ride gave me the best pictures of the desert in the entire tour. Maybe because I was perched atop a Camel's back. The golden hue of the desert is something that must not be missed. Totally admired my ride and the landscape.

Exactly how they showed in movies like Sarfarosh and Hum dil de chuke sanam. My first experience of riding a camel in the Thar desert was wonderful. All thanks to Thrillophilia.

So camel ride finally checked from my bucket list. Thanks to Thrillophilia for offering tours like this. It was thrilling and very exciting to stroll in the deserts of Jodhpur and having such an amazing experience. Would love to go again for having more fun in Jodhpur.

We had so much fun on this tour, and really loved the camel riding experience in the dunes of the mighty Thar desert. The pick up service was timely, and we especially loved the yummy meal that was served to us at the end of the tour.
