Why Rajasthan
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.
Rajasthan, a land of princes, palaces and preening peacocks is renowned
for its monuments, art and culture that go back to several centuries. Admire
a range of miniature paintings and frescoes of exquisite refinement. There
is romance in 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 seen or heard anywhere else in
the country.
Rajasthan overwhelms with colour found in bustling bazaars; in wide ranging
costumes of its people; in streets where elephants and camels vie with buses
and cars. The irresistible gamut of art and handicraft souvenirs will bewitch
you. An exciting variety of Rajasthani delicacies will pamper your palate
with a never-before gastronomic delight.
Traveling too is a rewarding experience in Rajasthan. For it is organized
on the lines of superlative standards. Modern air and train services, deluxe
coaches and chauffeur-driven cars transport you quickly and comfortably
to every wonder-packed corner of the state.
Rajasthan with a treasure of history, picturesque architecture and bewitching
landscape is an unparalleled destination on the tourist map of India. A
destination that defies definition. Tourism is Rajasthan's Life Blood.
