13. Located around 35 kms from
Barmer, somewhere in the
Thar Desert is Keradu
Temples, the unexplored
Khajuraho of Rajasthan.
Dating back to 11th-12th century AD,
it was a complex of about 108
temples of which ruins of only five
survive.
Muslim invaders raided, defaced
the statues of Gods, mutilated the
female figurines and destroyed the
temple complex & became the
victim of strong dusty winds.
Each nock and corner is intricately
carved and depicts scenes from the
epics of Ramayana and
Mahabharata and the incarnations
of Lord Vishnu. 13

15. Redana is a stretch of white
Rann in the middle of sand
dunes. It is a natural saline
depression locally called as
“Rann”.
For a few months post monsoon it
gets covered by water giving it an
impression of a huge lake or a
sometimes even an ocean due to its
white sand.
Migratory birds like pelicans,
flamingoes, cranes, & herons land
here and this makes it an ideal spot
for bird watching. Post winters it
turns into a white ran in the middle
of sand dunes.
