It is the “Gateway to the Thar Desert,” and the small city of Churu can be found in the Jangladesh region of northern Rajasthan, along with a few other unusual settlements in the desert state. It’s about 200 kilometers from Jaipur and connects many major cities in Rajasthan; it’s a great place to get away from it all and relax, with its golden sand dunes, ancient buildings, and peaceful atmosphere.
Camel herds, lavish architecture, havelis, history, heritage, and vivid colors characterize Churu. The small town atmosphere is enhanced by the locals’ warm hospitality and traditional way of life. There is no place like Churu; it is filled with grand havelis dating back hundreds of years, each one grander than the last, colorful temples, delectable food, and the glistening sands of the desert.

Therefore, the months of November through February (or even early March) are ideal for a trip to Churu. Daytime highs in these months average between 24 and 28 degrees Celsius, while overnight lows can dip into the freezing range.
