Travel To Rajasthan
The land of Rajasthan is a colourful melange of massive forts, stunning palaces, diverse cultures, delectable cuisines and warm people, set amidst a rugged yet inviting landscape.
It is a land that has inspired me and countless others. Come tread on the sands of time. In Rajasthan, you will find every hue in Nature’s grand palette – the red sands, the blue of royalty, the pink cities or the amber sunsets. Surrender yourself to the sounds of trinkets or the sounds of the all conquering wind. Sight and sounds that are far removed from any city. Sights and sounds that will transport you into a folk lore.
Music, art and dance is woven into every inch of this land we call paradise. You will find it carved in every grain of sand. Here, you will find the past, the present and the future. You will find passion. You will find adventure. And you will find yourself.
