Despite being the country's most arid region, Rajasthan is one of the most colourful, vibrant and exciting parts of India. Along with the pink and blue cities of Jaipur and Jodhpur, the people of Rajasthan are the most colourfully dressed and heavily jewelled in India. 

Rajasthan's majestic forts and palaces are a testament to its turbulent history, one marked by internal wars and frequent invasions from east and west. The palaces are surely the most sumptuous in India - the craftsmanship, detail and sheer extravagance will leave you speechless.
