colourful Marwar ̈Festival, which includes

The old city has something like 100 guest-
houses, most of which scramble for your
custom as soon as you get within breathing
distance of Sardar Market.
If a rickshaw rider or friendly local is clam-
ouring to take you to a particular guesthouse
or hotel, it’s probably because he is aiming to

receive a commission from them. There’s a

growing anticommission movement among

hoteliers here, but many still pay touts, or

your rickshaw/taxi driver an absurd 50% of

what you pay for your room. Don’t believe

drivers or strangers on the street who tell

you the place you want has closed, is full, is

under repair, is far from the centre etc.

Many lodgings can organise a pick-up

from the train station or bus stops, even at

night, if you call ahead. Otherwise, for most

places in the old city you can avoid nonsense

by getting dropped at the clock tower and

walking from there.
