Rajasthan has an unending cycle
of fairs and festivals throughout the year. They are perhaps the
most colourful and spectacular in the whole of India. Besides the
festivals born out of age old traditions, there are others which
celebrate seasons, cattle marts which turn out to be enthralling
fairs, craft fairs that highlights the crafts of the different
regions and so on. Rajasthani festivals give an insight to the colourful
life style of the Rajasthani people and are mesmerizing with their
folk dances, music, drama and animal races. Few of the main Fairs
and festivals include Teej, Gangaur, Pushkar Fair, Desert festival,
Elephant Festival and Camel festival which are now known worldwide.
