Thanks a lot for watching and safe journeys!
incredible India !! so diverse, Mountain cold to dessert heat !!
*desert
The Himalaya series has been really nice and the Ladakh part was splendid, looking forward to more such videos from Rajasthan.👍
Madhya Pradesh state is a fantastic destination. You have wonderful forests (Panna, Bandavgarh Tiger reserves), fantastic forts (Gwalior), Palaces, Mysterious temples (Khajuraho), River valleys (Beda Ghat in Jabalpur which was mentioned by Swapnil), cool metropolis (Bhopal, Indore), Holy temples (Ujjain, Omkareshwar), Prehistoric stone-age caves (Bhimbetka), almost everything you could think of except a sea beach
I've been to a lot of places in Madhya Pradesh actually: Gwalior, Orchha, Khajuraho, Chitrakut, Mandu, Omkareshwar, Pachmarhi, etc. You can find videos of all those places on my channel, but some of them were a long time ago. Here's a really old one of Mandu, just a short clip: th-cam.com/video/Bqyw2EIMaOg/w-d-xo.html
@@GabrielTravelerVideosI loved your Orchcha videos and the rest from that series. It was an underrated tourist place till you covered it. You unlocked the beauty of that region for tourists. Great work. ..
This recent run of vlogs has been outstanding 👏
Textile heaven, such vibrancy....sunshine and amazing architecture....history round every corner....India just keeps giving........
Thanks Gabriel, India so Beautiful! The Color, Design of your Room!
It looks totally a different world again. India is so diverse.
Definitely.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Echo & The Bunnymen! good taste Gabe
And just like that we are in Rajasthan! Ive been to Udaipur and Jaipur but this place, wow! Lets get into this! Love the music on this one,....I appreciate the traditional style of rooms over the new and modern. One of the best spots tradtionally I stayed at was in Varanasi, right down by the Ghats. Incredible stay I never slept so well, kinda felt like a Queen! Enjoy Gabriel!!
My man looking 10 years younger after that beard trim!! Wish I had a razor that magical 😂
Another interesting vid, thank you Gab, I love travelling the world from my armchair !, much cheaper this way ! Thank you for doing the hard yards ! 😊😊😊
How cool! I never heard of this city.
OMG The textiles the textiles 🤩🤩🤩 The details in the architecture are stunning, too! That restaurant is so pretty. Love the colors - and you’re killing me with that delicious looking thali. 😋
This is gonna be awesome!
1:56 Bro had a trim, looks 5 years younger.
Hi Gabriel So glad to see you in Jaisalmer. I went there last year and absolutely fell in love with the landscape and desert beauty. Have a fabulous time in Jaisalmer 😊
Thank you for this video. Rajasthan looks quite differently from the Indian Hymalayas. The diversity and the size make the charm of India. Of course, there are also other interesting factors, which stamp this country. Have a nice stay in Rajasthan and I am looking forward to watching your videos.
I liked the second room better and that roof top view was something else !! beautiful place✌💜
agree, would be great to chill out there after a days site-seeing with a glass of red wine...Hope Gab can do that for us!?
It feels like I went there with you, awesome vlog!
Sweet.
Cool trip! Quite a change of scenery. Horrible background music for the first half of the video though. Thanx for sharing!
Love your vlogs Gabriel
Have been watching them for last 12 years
Epic series. So enjoyable and informative!
Ultimate travel vlogging 😊
My teenage son and I follow you avidly
Nice room, sometimes it's not always good. But I don't mind the rough rooms, adds character 😅
Sometimes the small, simple rooms are the best, as long as the mattress is decent and yes, they often have more character.
Nice video again ! 😊😊😊❤🇧🇦🇧🇦🇧🇦
Hi Gabriel, Amazing hillside fort exciting time to be there no overwhelming heat, and being there aren't many tourists you going to get a lot of attention. The fort itself is an architectural marvel. Just walking around there is an adventure. Without question just getting from those cold rooms is a big relief. Walking around the Himalayas prepares you for walking around sea level, it should be a cakewalk.
Echo and the Bunnymen Porcupine. Good choice in music there, man. Happy travels.
Near Jaisalmer there is a village full of musicians if you into it it's worth checking out. You spotted on your hike up the fort to your hotel. These are generational musicians. There great, great grand parents would have played for the royal court. The play using classical Indian instruments. Watching them preform is awesome. Specially being out in the That and then settling into a camp at night with the fire roaring and the musicians preforming.
During its peak Jaisalmer was full of Indian Jain merchants who were very wealthy. 8n fact today the remaining Jain people all reside within the fort walls. Unfortunately Jaisalmer is now full of Muslims. Nothing against them but far too many are out to scam tourist. Good luck and enjoy.
Again a great video. Very curious of the white stone showed by that nice guy you discuss with at the airport. If i remember well, there was also a place like this on the coast of Sicily. This earth is amazing. Have further safe travels.
Hey Gabe , after so long I am watching Rajasthan. If, possible then please visit Udaipur also. I want to see my hometown through your journey. As I am missing in Taiwan. 😢 And must visit Kumbhalgarh fort festival too. ❤
We'll see, I might go there. 😊
One of the places that I want to visit in a near future--Rajasthan. Thanks for this vlog✌
Loved the intro/music/scenery! Very cool. And just like that, we’re off to another world. India is incredible. Cheers! 🥂
place in Ladakh India called Dras where temperature gets as low as -60c where in Churu Rajasthan it gets as high as 52c.
Gabe thank you for the Himalayan series and now unto to another great adventure
Thanks for sharing your music selections. I find that I also listen to many of the artists you like. Lush is one of my favorite bands of all time!
Love the pacing in the first part of this video! Seeing Indira Ghandi Airport gives me butterflies 😂
Absolutely so fascinating!
The food looked amazing!
Great series of videos from the Himalayas.. perfect time to leave and enjoy the planes
looking younger after beard trim
Haha I thought it was just me who saw it that way
He should do an Indian barber haircut/beard trim experience video, been done by other YT'rs but good fun.
@@ojosazules8828sorry, Gabe does not mimic harald
@@DaltonMirklesteinHarald who ?
@@BsBsBockBaldr on YT..
Jaisalmer fort is a living fort. Not like other forts which are empty now
Hello Gabriel welcome to India and Rajasthan hope you'll like it here.
While you are in Jaisalmer do check out the Rajasthani Thali (full meal) in a restaurant named 'Desert Boy' it's delicious, also go out for a night under the stars where you can camp in the Thar desert away, a secluded and a very serene experience.
You can get the details of under the stars from the staff at Desert Boy resturant. It was priced around 3000 for one person, a few years ago.
yes..i remember I used to have those thali of dal bati churma....
Gabriel might not like it as it is heavy food but he has to show it to viewers because those rajasthani thalis are unique. He should choose unlimited option and probably he can choose have light breakfast that day !
The one he had in "deserted" restaurant [ not 'Desert Boy'] was ordinary Rajasthani thali. But I feel Jaipur has more options and more cheaper.
You trimmed your beard looks nice and makes you look younger
Definitely looking younger with the beard trim, looks beautiful ❤x
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I actually ment the place he was in looked beautiful 😍 😅😅😅
@@helenwilliamson7099yeah right we believe you😃
Calm down Helen, you're not his type.
Brilliant Coverage of Incredible colourful life, which India offers. Amazing views from the fort. Revisiting with you. Trimmed Gab looks better.
Wow, Gabriel, your journeys inspire me so much! Thanks for showing us how travel can be done.
See kuldhara Village Its a haunted village with intersting background story in Jaisalmer
Hi Gabriel, long time follower and her I’ve love this series so far. Was in this part of the work in 2017 and it was a favourite. Keep up the great work!!
For all time. Always
great places to visit in Rajasthan - Ranakpur Jain temple and Dilwara Temple near Udaipur
Ive been to Jaisalmer in he early 90s and would love to go again. The fort seems nicely maintained than before and overall looks with more amenties and cafe eateries. The massive fort walls almost become a geometrically structured and chiselled mountain side! Absolutely a timeless wonder.
Love you,love youre work ❤
Loving the bell ringing at 29:00. Very nice video Gabe.
Wow Gabe, what an unreal place. Thanks for sharing!
you've been traveling full on for awhile. after Rajastan consider chilling in Goa again for a few days
5:02 looking good, almost 10years younger vs the day before ;)
What an awesome place that I didn't even know about! The only problem with finishing one of your videos is the wait for the next one! I abosolutely can't wait to see more of The Golden city!
Thanks Gabriel for this amazing video also show the beauty of our place we are appreciated 🎉
Glad you are in a little warmer location…Side note, just watched Ang Lee’s, “Life of Pi “ …What a beautiful movie with Indian characters and flavors, sounds, and colors of India. Ahh, the Universe within!
Yeah amazing movie and book.
What beautiful place! It is out of this world! So good to have a break from this hectic world to watch these videos! 😊
Probably people do not want to climb up to the restaurant so far that is why no one there
Another awesome episode. Epic intro again ❤👌✌️
Ram Ram Bhai. Go to the village where the bombs didn't explode when they landed in the temple it's not far from the border. Don't worry about the signs saying "No foreigner beyond this point" :)
As Harald Baldr coined the expression ''It's Gabriel 'High Roller' Traveler.'' Awesome running into a long time viewer at the airport and his giving you a good tip for a future adventure in Incredible India. I will most definitely look into Safar Guest House inside the fort during my upcoming travels in Rajastan. $10 bucks a night for a good room and decent internet speed is sweet. Thanks Gabe.
Are you a stalker?!
#3 from New York 🙏🏽 Namaste Gabe
Gabe You are an inspiration for me. Thanks a lot for your work
Hey Gabriel, seeing you eating all those yummy Indian dishes, I had to order Indian food for lunch today. 🤪 Save travels. 🙏
Awesome, enjoy.
We only see" delhi /punjab"i food outside india and that too is limited like paneer dishes,chole baturey,dal makhani, chicken tikka etc
or if it is south indian restaurant we see idli and dosa
which is like 5-10% of Indian dish and quality is 50% off in taste.
They make you burn 100 calories before eating the cake 🙈🤣
Looks like you were staying really close to where I stayed back in 2018 in Delhi! Some good places to stay by that long overpass, slightly out of the way but close to the airport too!
Cool, long time since I was in Jaisalmer, but I loved being there.
What a gorgeous rooftop view!!😍
Looks good Gabriel 😊
Amazing vlog 👍👍👍
Gabe looking sharp with his new beard look 😊
Many amazing places to visit in India.
you were showing clips from your 2014 India tour on your videos. this new look of your quite similar to that.
Nice work..
Thanks.
Echo and the Bunnymen Porcupine Thank you for sharing your travel experiences with us. Have a safe Trip!!
What a wonderful places!!...if i were there i'd buy everything!!...beautiful stuff everywhere...
Stunnnning!,,
That's a good tip as well: never go for a shoe cleaning service in touristic areas, you'll be overcharged .
Uttrakhand there are lot of place to visit in high himalaya ❤❤❤
I visited Jaisalmer in February 2023, its nice place to visit, try to visit a place named Kuldhara, its a haunted village near Jaisalmer.
Since you were working on the last video from Ladakh, I guess you haven't posted anything from your meet-up with Sean from England on the bridge in Manikaran a few days ago ?
Saw that you were filming while talking to him. Would be nice to see your version of you popping into each other.
You felt som chill there in Jaisalmer, all of November here in this part of Norway has been unusually cold. As cold as -10C and it is set to continue when passing into the winter months on Friday. Hope we don't get like that nasty winter in 2010.
It is said to be caused by El Nino by the way, which is surprising.
Sean's videos are behind, that happened a few weeks ago. Here's my vid about bumping into him: th-cam.com/video/wA3yN5tE5sI/w-d-xo.html
@@GabrielTravelerVideos Oh, I see ! Thanks 👍
Super choice of flight listening there. Always a big Lush fan. Though having said that ... I do prefer Split (epic, cascading) and the early Gala (which was a compilation of earlier EPs, very jingly) - if you don't have those, I'm sure you do tho!
Blooming beers!
I’m finally the first to view your excellent video
Second comment. Enjoy.
It’s the air pollution. When you get an hour or so out, it mostly clears out.
Place worth checking out. Wish I had made it there, next time.
KIRADU TEMPLES
35 km from Barmer, in a town located near the Thar Desert, are 5 temples known as the Kiradu Temples. Known for their Solanki style of architecture, these temples have remarkable and magnificent sculptures. These temples are dedicated to lord Shiva and of the five temples, Someshvara temple is the most remarkable.
India Jones would be proud!!!
I visited jaisalmer with family beginning of November. Stayed in side the fort too.
Hopefully to Kerala soon, not a lot of travelers go there...!
Gabe: it's so much warmer here. it's 19C lol..Imagine if it was July and it was 40C lol Great video as usual...enjoyed it! Cheers
Muchas gracias
Fascinating fort!
Bhopal chemical accident at Union Carbide pesticide plant.
Akshardham in Delhi is the place to see, better than Tajmahal is what I heard. Beautiful temples in and around Rajasthan, you need couple of weeks there, 3 days not enough.
Rajasthan Jaisalmer, yah cool😊, udaypur, jodhpur, bikaner, pushker, mount abu, chittorgarh, ajmer, kumbalgarh. So ancient and ethnic place.
Keep Tamilnadu in your bucket . Best time. ❤️❤️❤️❤️, enjoying. 🙏
Harvest anything - everywhere!
11:25 one thing that drives me crazy is: we Indians don't give way to others when walking.. people walk as if it's their own road/sidewalk..
compare it with say Thailand: people walk in a single line or atleast give space to opposite walkers
sidewalk? where did you see that (in which city of India)? There is no concept of sidewalk in India..even if they had it is too narrow and occupied by vendors.
The city infrastructure of any city is corrupted and also short of funds.
@@truthteller2991 agree
@@CharlieChaplinVideos But I see what you are pointing out. Even if cities build good infra, habits are not going to change. Look at airport which is world class infra and look at habit-old habits die hard.
Like a movie,was expecting to see Harrison Ford at any minute.😅
I was there in 1999. Brings back some good memories. Will you be Vlogging the Bhang lassi shop? 😅
Visit bundi district in Rajasthan.... palaces in there are really good
The forts are so majestic; even the peacocks take a pause to appreciate the architecture. Is it worth staying there for a week or I can explore it within a few days?
Few days and leave to the next towns nearby the pink city and the blue city.
