A talk about Rajasthan is a talk just about everything barring the South West region of the state. Probably because there are not many who venture there. This region, however, is full of such attractions, which are not pictographed in tourist brochures. Moreover, it is really heartening to find the people and culture completely isolated, hence completely unadulterated. A great opportunity to discover this Lost World.
