Silserh Lake, Talvriksh, Alwar - Rajasthan

These are all attractions that are very close to Sariska National Park, and are a few hours
from Delhi or Jaipur. Silserh lake is about 25 kilometers from Sariska. A beautiful palace has been built on the banks of the lake by Maharaja Vinay Singh in AD 1845 for his queen Sheela. The palace has now been taken up by Rajasthan Tourism Development Corporation (RTDC) and provides decent accomodation in the area. Boating is allowed in the lake though there are plenty of boards advertising the existence of crocodiles. We didn't see any in our half hour of pedaling in the lake.

Alwar, with a sign board that is as funny as the famous Hollywood sign, is about 15 kilometers
from Sariska. It is a historic city founded by Rao Pratap Singh in 1775 A.D. and has many forts
and palaces. However not all are open to the public. Visit the Bal Qila and the musuem. For more
information on the city, CLICK HERE...

Talvriksh, is around 10 kilometers from Sariska, and is a hot water spring. Do not expect a fancy
five star center with healers and beauty treatments. It is a small temple situated in a very rural
Rajasthani village. The water is warm and people visit for the supposed healing capabilities of
these sulphur springs.

The area around Sariska, is filled with history dating back many centuries, and can be seen in
the many ruined forts around the area. The drive is through state roads, and though the roads
can be bumpy, the many peacocks you will see in the area makes for a pleasant outing.
