Rajasthan is a land overflowing with art and culture. Visit any place in Rajasthan, be it Udaipur, Jodhpur or the very beautiful Jaisalmer and you’ll be treated to architectural delights, beautiful carvings and melodious music. Unlike in Mumbai, where the streets are devoid of performers, in Rajasthan, it’s quite common to find locals, rustic instruments in hand, performing on the streets. In fact, for many this is a common way of earning a living. They even station themselves in famous forts to give tourists a taste of traditional Rajasthani music.
