Heritage Temple Walk
- Walk through the village to the 600
year old Temple of Goddess Durga (Goddess of War). History states that

time to visit this temple is during sunset when you could climb up to
the top and get a very good view of the landscape around.

lanes, to cenotaphs of the nobles of the ruling family of Khejarla.

Jeep Safari -
Rajasthan is very popular for its
vibrant and colourful customs, traditions, culture and heritage. It is
also famous for its exotic desert and village landscapes. Safari is
the best way to explore such a beautiful and versatile land. There are
lots of safaris like camel, jeep, horse and elephant safaris to help
us explore the natural, cultural and historical charm of this
beautiful Rajasthan. Jeep safari is the fastest way to explore the
wonders of Khejarla and close by villages. A complete unique cultural
experience, to bring you closer to the life of the villagers. Various
customs and ceremonies are performed and can be experienced with the
warmth and hospitality of Marwari people. Enroute to villages one can
see the desert wild life in abundance like Deers, Black Bucks, and
Blue Bulls along with visit to the lake to see migratory birds. The
tour also includes a visit to a step well, a horse breeding farm, the
textile block printing mill and the old markets of Pipar town. On the
way to safari visitors can see the craftsman on work, shepherds and
farmers. We can also arrange for camel safaris to nearby villages
depending on the requirement of our guests. Each camel would be
associated with an escort for the tour.

Heena
- The art of Mehendi has existed for centuries. The exact place of its
origin is difficult to track because of centuries of people in
different cultures moving through the continents and taking their art
forms with them and therefore sharing their art with everyone along
the way. Some historical evidence suggests that Mehendi started in
India while others believe it was introduced to India during the
twelfth century A.D. In India no function or ceremony is complete
without applying mehendi on hands and feet of women. During wedding
the bride's henna must be more beautiful and intricate than anyone
else's of course since it is, after all, her special day.
