Pokaran Heritage Hotels
The principalty of Pokaran stands isolated in the heart of the Thar. More recently, it has become famous for a somewhat unusual reason: as the site where India's nuclear might was tested in underground explosions. But once it was the place where caravans came to rest, and a 14th century fort provided them shelter, as it did later to a more famous visitor, Emperor Humayun, in the 16th century. The countryside around Pokaran, once famous for its shoots, is now home to the great Indian bustard, the houbara bustard, and sandgrouse. Pokaran is no km from Jodhpur, and 164 km from
J aisalmer.Pokaran Fort: Housed within the fort is a rare collection of weapons, paintings, turbans, dresses and furniture, and there are camel safaris that can be organised from this historic fort. Built of red sandstone, the fort has 14 rooms, and a delightful ambience.
