Worth stopping for
Nakoda Ji
The Parshvanath temple complex and Bhairav Ji above it.
Before you set off
- Morning aarti is the reason to make an early start.
- Bus parking and group accommodation are both good here, which is not true of every tirth.
- The Bhairav Ji shrine involves a flight of steps above the main complex.
- Combine with Barmer or Jaisalmer if the group is continuing west.
Questions about this route
Can a large bus reach Nakoda?
Yes. The approach road takes full-size coaches and the complex has organised parking — it is set up for pilgrimage groups.
Is accommodation available at Nakoda?
The trust runs dharamshalas that can house large groups. We can help coordinate, but the booking is made with the trust directly.
