Sightseeing
The
ship
of the desert,
the camel, was disciplined thousands of years ago primarily for the
reason of making tedious journey through the unrelenting Thar Desert.
So, how would you like a camel safari - to discover the eccentricities
of Rajasthan on the back of the most native guide? You may go for a
short safari through a typical Rajasthani village or a long-distance
expedition lasting a few days. The best times for traveling are the
cooler parts
of the day, the mornings and evenings.
The
towns
of Shekhawati
are well known for their amazing
painted havelis. Such is the appeal of the havelis that this region is
dubbed as "open art gallery of Rajasthan". The excess of painted Havelis
in rich artistic custom makes it commendable and fascinating. Most of
the buildings are dated from 18th century to early 20th century. The
Shekhawati scenery is dotted with so many havelis that tracking them is
something like a treasure hunt.
Various forms of fine art adorn the walls and the ceilings of these
structures, complimenting the otherwise flat and barren land.
The
significance
of horses for
the Rajputs cannot be undermined. The royalty of Rajasthan, the
charming and gallant Rajput kings, always traveled on horseback. They
were said to be born with riding skills and their horses were among
their prized possessions. Horses were important for the military and
the many wars in Rajasthan's history were waged on horseback.
