Royal Rajasthan evokes images of Rajput Warrior Princes riding painted elephants in their opulent attire, with a large retinue attending to the whims and fancies of their maharajas. Maharajas of Rajashtan were not just the valiant warriors but connoisseurs of art and culture. They offered patronage to artisans who in turn built mighty forts and spectacular palaces. No wonder that the desert kingdoms of Rajputana is nowadays one of the most vibrant and colorful states in India. Brightly colored turbans, myriad hues of saris and friendly populace add to the appeal of this globally renowned destination despite its stark landscape and harsh climate.
