Uttarakhand : An Ode to Himalaya and Spirituality (Leg II towards Delhi )

# Day II : Udaipur to Delhi.

10.          This sector has seen a change in the stop over for night  as I became more conversant with the route of travelling up North , in my earlier travels I used to travel till Behror(Harayana) but on this occasion I moved  right up to Delhi itself which was another 150  kms ahead. The drive is again long and instead of using NH 8 my recommendation is to go in to the heartland of Rajasthan via Chittorgarh , Bhilwara, Nasirabad,Kishangarh ,  Jaipur from where  one would  cross over into Harayana and then via towns of Behror , Rewari  reaching upto Gurgaon and then its Delhi itself  which says Hello . The highways used are NH 76 and then NH 79 and rejoin NH8 at the Kishangarh-Jaipur Expressway.

11.          The highways 76 & 79 are super bland but off late I have begun noticing traffic in an otherwise long curving road in the middle of nowhere. The lunch option is again fantastic, I in fact wait to eat at one of the obscure dhabas that are visible on the Bhilwara-Nasirabad stretch. Great simple food cooked on wooden fired chulahs right in front of you as one sits cross legged on coir Chairpouys with a wooden plank place across that serves as the tableJ. The stay for the night at Delhi  was at a friend’s pad and it was a welcome change.
