Ok, there is only one reason to visit Deshnok: the rat temple. As the name says it is a temple where rats are worshipped, given milk, fed,... Quite an interesting sight.
Uhm, and if you think the sweets sold at stalls sold around the temple look tasty - DO NOT try them ! They are supposed to be given to the rats inside the temple - as I realized after having tried one :-/
It is a short busride from Bikaner (about 45 min.) Try to get a seat on the bus roof if you dare, it's a very nice ride this way - however be sure to wear thick trousers: sometimes the roof is black and you can imagine what happens with it in the sun ;-)
