Folklore, Culture, and Fashion, Embrace the arts

Rajasthan stands apart thanks to its incredible contrast of colours, textures, and materials, even if art and culture are prevalent in many Indian cities. Even in the farthest reaches of the desert, you can discover shops with dazzling lights offering bangles, folklore, and regional textiles in the greatest colour combinations.

Rajasthan has a long history of artistic and cultural influence dating back to the time when Kings ruled. According to legend, these rulers, who dominated the "Baroli" and "Hatodi" territories, were ardent admirers of paintings and art. Rajasthan also has a long history of producing handmade jewellery. In an interesting contrast to the rest of the nation, Rajasthani folk tradition values male jewellery just as highly as female jewellery. The folklore and traditional arts of Rajasthan are highly regarded for their centuries-old traditions. Rajasthani puppeteers captivate audiences with their remarkable storytelling and technical prowess. Puppetry is one of the state's most significant art forms. Kathputli, a kind of puppetry unique to Rajasthan, uses wooden dolls that are moved by a single thread. The region is renowned for its indigenous dance styles, such as Kachhi, Ghumar, and Gaitti.
