Rajasthan Cultural Tours: A Journey Into The Heart, History And Heritage Of Rajasthan

Rajasthanis are an exclusive race that presents the courageous side of human race

that never gives up on hope and happiness, no matter how hostile the living conditions are. The monochrome stark landscape with barren hills and sand stretches come alive with colorful dresses, paintings, frescoes, and objects of daily use that dot villages and cities of Rajasthan alike. The tranquil atmosphere of wind's playground Sam Sand Dunes seems to be one with soulful performances of the haunting desert music and Bundi and Kishangarh style of paintings have long been vital parts of most elaborate art collections.

As you embark on a Rajasthan Cultural Tour, you will come across craftsmanship and cultural advancements you had not even heard of. The Baddi Temple of Kotah region displays super architectural skills with exquisite sculptures, wall paintings and frescoes that are worthy of note. The medieval lifestyle of the people in the region is also quite interesting to American and European tourists who come here. The complex framework of castes and sub-castes is still prevalent here along with most talked about nuisances of Indian culture such as Sati system, child marriages, gender biases and ban on inter-caste marriages. Guided by travel experts with first-hand local knowledge, you can see the true and authentic culture and lifestyle of rural Rajasthan.

Mandawa, in the Shekhawati region, is another highlight of culture trips to Rajasthan. Wealthy merchant families that once built most elaborate Havelis here have not been looked after well. Still, they are visual extravaganzas for those who love to see what true luxury means. Looking down at a dancing peacock in the expansive lawns and gardens from the arched windows of a luxurious room at Castle Manadawa or roaming through the streets of the town to discover some amazing paintings and defaced frescoes adorning Havelis from a bygone era bring in an excitement of an explorer at every turn.

Even wildlife tours to Ranthambore and Bandhavgarh National Parks can be given a cultural twist. Besides the stays at royal hunting lodges and forest resorts, walk with the naturalists, and going on jeep and elephant safaris on tiger trails, Ranthambore National Park is also home to indigenous tribes with a fascinating minimalist lifestyle. Tribal dwellings on the periphery of the park; experiences of Mogiya Tribals, who have been hunters and game watchers for the royalty and nobles for generations; and their simple handicrafts make us aware of existence at another level altogether.

Other important cultural destinations and attractions of Rajasthan that have earned prominence in world tourism map include Desert Triangle highlights of Bikaner, Jaisalmer, and Jodhpur that are as much known for Camel Safaris as they are known for their fairytale forts and palaces, and Royal Rajasthani Weddings at the Lake Palace and Fateh Prakash Palace of Udaipur.
