Rajasthan Continue.....
Rajasthan in northwestern India, with an area of 342,239 square kilometers, is bounded on the west and northwest by Pakistan, on the north and northeast by the states of Punjab, Haryana, and Uttar Pradesh, on the east and southeast by the states of Uttar Pradesh and Madhya Pradesh, and on the southwest by the state of Gujarat.
Before Independence in 1947, Rajputana, as it was called, comprised of 18 princely states, two chief ships, the small British-administered province of Ajmer-Merwara, and a few pockets of territory outside the main boundaries. After 1947 the princely states and chief ships were integrated into India in several stages, and the state took the name of Rajasthan, assuming its present form on Nov.1, 1956.
Now its a museum of - Battle scarred forts, marble palaces, delightful folk art and culture, and a romantic sense of pride and honor. A land of contrasts. Lakes in the midst of desert sands. Temples that date back to the 7th century that are still the hallowed ground of worship. Elephants and camels on winding tarred roads. Majestic modern hotels in palaces of old. Tales that never end. Mystery and romance. An unforgettable past, an unbelievable dream.
