Few places capture the imagination in quite the
same way as Rajasthan. Battle-scarred forts and
grand marble palaces and temples dot the landscape,
conjuring up images of chivalry and romance. Rugged
natural beauty, the vibrant colours of the traditional
dress and the delightful folk art and culture of
this region add to its appeal. The land of the Rajas,
or kings, includes the extremes of mountain and
desert. The Aravali range divides the state in two,
part of which is the Thar desert, where life proceeds
much as it has for centuries. Elephants and camels
make their way along the roads. When the sun sets,
the colours of the desert sand compete with the
multi-hued headgear of the camel riders.
Rajasthan is known for its handicrafts, art,
music and dance, a legacy inherited by the rajas'
love of opulence and grandeur. There is a festival
for every occasion in this exotic land, making the
golden sands come alive in celebration.
