Bikaner in Rajasthan was founded by Rao Bikaji in 1488 with a cluster of 84 villages forsaken by the Shankhlas thereby transforming into the mighty kingdom that extended to 3000 villages by 1504. Rao Bikaji showed exemplary courage and foresight to abandon his father’s kingdom in Jodhpur swallowing an insult and founding the city amidst arid desert land with an army of 500 soldiers and 100 cavalry horses. The city flourished under Rao Bikaji’s rule and thereafter under the reign of his successors turning into a tourist hotspot transporting them to the era of Rajputs. Forts, monuments, shrines, museums, desert, wildlife, handicraft industry; the city offers everything desired by a tourist.
