History
Osian, historically known as Ukesha, was a significant trading center and a major religious hub between the 8th and 12th centuries. The town's history is closely linked to the Pratihara dynasty, who were patrons of the many Jain and Hindu temples that still stand today. Desert safaris in Osian are a relatively recent development, designed to showcase the region's natural beauty and cultural heritage to tourists. While the safaris themselves don't have ancient roots, they provide a modern way to experience the timeless charm of the Thar Desert and connect with the traditions of the local communities who have lived in this region for centuries.
