The Desert Festival, Jaisalmer |
 The Desert Festival - an extravaganza of
colour, music and festivity, is held every year during the
Hindu month of Magh (February). It has, on display, some of
the most fondly preserved components of Rajasthan's rich culture.
Add to this the warmth and cheerfulness of the people of
Rajasthan who welcome the tourists from the depths of their
hearts. The excitement heightens as the Maru-Shri (Mr. Desert)
Competition and the turban-tying competition gets underway.
In the turban-tying competition and tug of war, Indians compete
with foreigners which adds to the fun of the festival. An
interesting event of the festival is the Moustache Competition.
In this competition the prize is given to the man with the
longest moustache.
The grand finale is a trip to the sand dunes on the moonlit
night, where one can also experience the pleasure of a camel
ride. The folk artistes performing on the sand dunes takes the
enchantment to its crescendo. Have a good time at the Desert
Festival - a unique blend of colour, rhythm and melody.
