Sambhar Salt Lake

Sambhar Salt Lake, located in east-central Rajasthan, holds the distinction of being India’s largest saline lake. A hidden gem for nature enthusiasts, the lake’s bed is often covered with salt sheets, resembling snow from a distance, particularly during the hot months when the lake is usually dry. 

Vaishnaw’s tweet not only showcases the scenic beauty of the region but also highlights the unique charm of train travel amid nature’s wonders.
