Jodhpur | August 2024 – Creativegarh – Creativity Retreats
When is it happening?

11th to 17th August, 2024

Where is it happening?

In a place of princely palaces, magnificent forts and age-old temples, also known
as the Blue City of India – Jodhpur. The city forms the very soul of Rajasthan and
is much like a magnet, attracting travellers from all over to take a dip in its
old-world charm. It is here that you can travel back in time to the glorious days
of yore as you will seek to relook into your life’s past.

You would be staying in a desert botanical resort amidst the undiscovered side of
Thar. The elegant resort makes for a haven of tranquillity that invites our participants
to soak up the aura of a vintage city and recharge their soul’s batteries while on a
creative journey.

VENUE

Kaner Retreat is a hidden gem located amidst the magnificent Thar,
where every moment is an opportunity to reconnect with nature, culture and your
inner self.

The property boasts ample sit-outs and a private courtyard, so you can kick back and
relish an al fresco-style breakfast under the azure blue sky or mark off a wonderful
day under the glistening stars. The USP of this place is perhaps the resilient trees
and green shrubbery that sustain life against all odds. A common swimming pool at one
part of the property is inspired from the step wells or ‘baoris’ of Rajasthan, where
you can take a rejuvenating dip at any time of the day. The property features 10 spacious
and homely villas.
