When we think of Nature and its beauty, the first few images that come to our minds are full of lush greenery, exotic flowers, and perhaps large bodies of fresh water. We dream of chasing butterflies, admiring clear blue skies with white cotton clouds floating around at a dull relaxed pace. A warm sunny day seems to be our idea of a perfect day for outing. Rajasthan tours presents best of everything that you have just imagined with quite a few add-ons that you will love to discover and explore.
Rajasthan is largely a desert state with Jodhpur, Jaisalmer, and Bikaner representing the most renowned cities of Thar Desert tour circuit. Some of the first impressions of the state of Rajasthan in India comprise profusion of bright vibrant colors and festive lifestyle of its people. Bright colored turbans and long mustaches of men as well as brightly colored ghaghras and cholis of women capture our attention at once.
Little means and scarcity of water have little effect on irrepressible zeal of these desert people to live life in style. Rich haunting musical strains of Rajasthan and acrobatic dance performance of its local artistes that usually tell of its rich folklores and heroes charm foreigners with a universal appeal, unique to music.The stark barren sand that takes on a golden hue when sun is high in the sky and look like ripples of silvery water in the moonlight create perfect backdrop for majestic forts and palaces of Rajasthan that look like a mirage in this desert land. The Golden City of Jaisalmer was so called because the sandstone used in Jaisalmer Fort has a golden-yellow hue and seems to rise from the very golden sands on which it stands. Rajasthani people love colors. Brahmins of Jodhpur used to paint their houses in indigo to denote their high class. You can still see rows of indigo houses in the old city areas from the majestic Mehrangarh Fort though the class difference is not valid anymore.
Travel and tourism in Rajasthan has many facets. While historical and royal tours often share their circuits, cultural tours of Rajasthan have more in common with rustic tourism circuits and include several Rajasthani villages and smaller towns better known for their uniqueness and distinctiveness in rituals, traditions, arts, crafts, and architectural styles. Rustic Rajasthan tours often include camel rides, camel safaris, or camel caravans that last somewhere from a few hours to almost a month.
The wobbly stride of a hunchbacked camel is compensated by the warmth, friendliness and simplicity of the locals who love to play hosts to their guests from foreign lands. It is not uncommon that you get invited to a Rajasthan wedding where you can witness unique rituals and understand their significance during your tour. Visit to various wildlife sanctuaries of Rajasthan offers you an opportunity to see Royal Bengal tigers and watch birds as well as shoot some of the most rare wildlife videos. Its fair and festivals are striking and its pastimes include engaging puppet shows and interesting performing and visual arts. Rajasthan tours are a lesson of celebrating life in every way you can.
Rajasthan is a Land of Beautiful Contrasts and Irrepressible Human Zeal
