Bikaner B2B

The work of Rao Bikaji, a son of Jodha Singh, who founded Jodhpur, was Bikaner, a miracle in the desert. Bikaner, linked by rail and road, is approximately 450 km from Jaipur. In this bleak area, the very plan to build a residence speaks of the brave challenge men may throw to the unpleasant nature. However, Bikaner has always been a significant and beautiful town — on the bank of the Saraswati River. The river has gone underground since then.

Located in the northwest of Rajasthan, several sand dunes surround the city. The mediaeval splendour that is evident in the lifestyle of the city is preserved by Bikaner. The city, more commonly referred to as the camel nation, is known for the world's best travel camels. Bikaner's history dates back to 1488 AD, when his kingdom was founded here by Prince Rathore Rao Bikaji-a descendant of the founder of Jodhpur (1459 AD), Rao Jodhaji. Rao Jodhaji had five sons, but the most entrepreneurial of them was Rao Bikaji. Bikaji chose a sterile desert called 'Jangaldesh' and made it an impressive area, named after the founder 's name, Bikaner. In the past, Bikaner's strategic position on the ancient caravan routes that came from West / Central Asia made it a key business centre. The town of Bikaner is built on slightly elevated ground and is surrounded by a fortified wall with five gates, seven kilometres long. Crafted delicately in reddish pink sandstone, the majestic forts and palaces bear witness to its rich historical and architectural heritage.

The place, popularly called Bikaneri Namkeens, is very popular for its confectionery. Bikaner is in the middle of the Thar Wave Terrain and the heat range also reaches 50 degrees in summer and it falls to close to zero in the winter season. In this place, there is very little rain.
