The history of this mind-blowing state goes back to more than 5000 years and
this History boasts of a very rich culture and tradition. This state has given
the country much as far as tourism is concerned. The tradition of this state
has been very rich from the pre-historic times and continues to do so. There
were very powerful rulers who ruled this state from the times that goes back
to the (7 AD) till the founding of the Delhi Sultanate, Rajasthan was a state
which was in fragments and all these fragmented kingdoms were fighting amongst
each other.
The country of Temples and Monuments, country having a rich tradition and culture
and a country with a lot of diversity, that’s what INDIA is. A country
so different from the rest in the world, a country which is blessed with Nature
and a country which can boast of a lot of peace and tranquility entices every

The royal state of Rajasthan is full of majestic palaces and marvelous high
standing forts, temples, which are well known for their architecture and design.
There are many museums in Rajasthan, which are treasure trove of ancient manuscripts,
weapons. This heritage and culture is still alive in the state and is of most
interest to all the tourists who visit this state in millions every year and
try to take back these memories.
The origin of the Rajputs remains somewhat in doubt. That they were of foreign
origin is suggested by the elaborate genealogies that the Brahmins (the priest
of the Indian Varna or caste system) created to accord them the Kshatriya (warrior)
caste. Which status they always insisted upon with almost undue vehemence. The
Rajputs traced their lineage from a mythical fire atop Mt Abu, a mountain in
Rajasthan, (Agni Kula or the Fire Family), the sun (Suryavanshi or the Sun Family)
and the moon (Chandravanshi or the Moon Family).
When it comes to wildlife I think most of us love the experience of seeing the
wild animals and birds in their natural surroundings. With due respect to their
right of living in their own domain that is the real place where they should
be and no amount of torture to them is a forgivable crime. Imagine seeing the
king of the jungle relishing its prey after a fresh kill or experiencing the
dance of a group of deer’s who make swift movements across the jungle or
for that matter absorbing the little birds making a flight into the sky where
they compete with each other trying to soar high and high into the deep blue
sky.
