When most people think of Rajasthan, they imagine golden deserts, summer heat, and arid forts under a blazing sun. But here’s the secret: Rajasthan in monsoon is one of India’s most underrated travel experiences. From Bundi’s moss-covered forts to Mount Abu’s misty hills, from Udaipur’s overflowing lakes to Ranthambore’s lush green forests, the state transforms into a dramatic, romantic, and refreshingly cool destination between July and September.

When most travelers think of Rajasthan, grand palaces and sun-baked forts come to mind. Yet beyond the pink city of Jaipur and the blue lanes of Jodhpur lies a mosaic of protected parks, reserves, and wetlands where tigers prowl, leopards lurk, and flocks of migratory birds blanket the skies. The term Rajasthan Wildlife Sanctuaries captures this thrilling network of ecosystems—from the dense teak forests of the Ranthambore plateau to the shimmering lakes of Bharatpur.
