Rajasthan, the land of the Kings, in India at its
exotic and colourful best with its bettle-scarred forts, its
palaces of breathtaking grandeur and whimsical charm, its
riotous colours and even its romantic sense of pride and
honour. The state is diagonally divided into the hilly and
rugged south-eastern region and the barren north-western Thar
desert, which extends across the border into Pakistan. There
are also a number of centres which attract travellers from far
and wide, such as Pushkar with its holy lake, and the desert
city of Jaisalmer which resembles a fantasy from the The
Thousand & One Nights. Rajasthan is one of India's prime
tourist destinations. Nobody leaves here without priceless
memories, a bundle of souvenirs, and an address book full of
friends
