Chandrabhaga Kartik Fair, Jhalawar |
 On the banks of river Chandrabhaga, in the month
of Kartik, a large cattle fair next in the size to
that of Pushkar fair is held on the occasion of Kartik
Purnima. Pilgrims from Hadoti region and parts of the
neighboring state Madhya Pradesh come and bathe in the holy
waters of Chandrabhaga river. The peasants bathe and worship,
are variously entertained, and delight in the dazzling wares
of the roadside stalls and small shops. Various cultural activities
are held by Rajasthan Tourism Development Corporation (RTDC).
Thousands gather on the full moon night of Kartik Purnima
to take a holy dip in the river. A big cattle fair, which
blends religion with commerce, is held here. Livestock include
Cows, Buffaloes, Camels and Bullocks.
The fair provides ample opportunity to the tourist to acquaint
themselves with the people of this region, their culture and
traditions.
