New tourist points to be identified at Sambhar Lake
The Hindu
New tourist points for witnessing the flora and fauna and having a glimpse of salt harvesting will be identified shortly at the world-famous Sambhar Salt Lake, situate 80 km away from Jaipur. A “salt train”, which transported salt from the pans to a nearby refinery, will also be restarted.
Chief Secretary Niranjan Arya said here on Friday that the Sambhar Lake, which formed part of the desert circuit in the Centre’s Swadesh Darshan Scheme, had an immense potential for tourism. In addition to the migratory birds, the natural process of salt getting deposited in the lake could be displayed to the tourists, he said.
