range of things. The elephants, camels, bird
sanctuaries, festivals and fairs, forts, luxury
trains, folk dance/music, arts/crafts, and royalty….
So the next time you are planning a vacation for
yourself, family or friends do consider the royal
land of Rajasthan. The land still speaks of the
chivalry of its rulers; the palaces are evidence of
the royalty that reigned for centuries. Rajasthan is
the abode of the kings, that is, Raja's sthan
(place). The most colorful region in India . An
exotic land of valiance and chivalry. A land endowed
with invincible forts, magnificent palaces and
waves of sand dunes and serene lakes. The State
represents an unusual diversity in all its
forms-people, Rajasthani culture, customs, costumes,
cuisine, dialects and music.
No other region in the country assembles the many
paradoxes of India as does the desert land of
Rajasthan. Unexpected forest glens, lakes and
temples appear like mirages in the deserts. On the
crag are seen rugged forts, testimony to a turbulent
history.
Innumerable temples dating back to the 7th century
still survive amidst scattered ruins, medieval
cities exist around turreted marble palaces and
spacious gardens

preening peacocks is renowned for its monuments, art
and culture that go back to several centuries.

Rajasthani's forts and palaces and arts of gallantry
retold in ballads and legends. Then there are
sanctuaries sheltering rich and varied species of
flora and fauna. And the shimmering Thar desert belt
charms with a rare and amazing sight. Rajasthani's
are a handsome people with colorful costumes. They
express themselves in color and sound not easily
