Gajner Palace is an incomparable "Jewel in the
Thar Desert" built on the embankment of a lake
by His Late Highness Maharaja Ganga Singhji of
Bikaner. During winter even now, this palace
with its beautiful lake and surrounded wooded
areas become the home of different species of
migratory birds, most renowned amongst them
being the Imperial Sand Grouse. Endangered
antelopes like Black Bucks, Nilgais, Chinkaras
and other animals like the Wild Boar roam freely
in this area which is now a preserved sanctuary.
There are 10 historic suites and 28 well
appointed rooms open to travellers. Authentic
game recipes have been adapted to create "Shikari"
dishes out of chicken and mutton. One can
experience the true romance of the desert in the
comfort of Gajner Palace. |
