The mood and the rhythm of the country side changes from one
region to another, and from season to season. India, the country,
where culture echoes, traditions speak by its historical places
and diversity delights is a land of magnificent monuments. The
Historical Rajasthan is the magical land located in the northwest
of the republic of India. Historical Rajasthan is the largest
state of India in term of size having long history of rich
culture, natural beauty, great warrior, magnificent forts and
historical palaces.
Visiting Historical Rajasthan's big cities with a fast-moving
westernised life style, or exploring historic towns or quaint
villages, you will always find the people warm and friendly. And
if you want to move away from the regular tourist beat, it is very
easy to organise your own tour. For a visitor, Historical
Rajasthan builds a lot of opinions and breaks a number of
misconceptions. Historical Rajasthan is a place, which defies any
definition. Many people have seen the immense luxury of the
palaces and this remains the image they hold of "historical state"
Rajasthan.
