| About
Rajasthan |
Rajasthan is where all
the country's similes and metaphors appear to have come together.
Sand dunes, wooded hills and amazing lakes, palaces and rugged
forts, men and women in colorful turbans and skirts, bustling
towns and quiet villages, camels, elephants and tigers, harsh
sunlight and the cool evening breeze - are all there in abundance.
But they form only part of an intricate tapestry. Beneath the
surface, expect to find many contradictions. Where ever you
travel, particularly when you escape from the popular tourist
destinations you will come across the unexpected, whether it
is a local fair or breathtaking view.

Rivers in the forested area around the border of Rajasthan that
it shares with Madhya Pradesh and Gujarat.
