We just returned from a five day trip in Rajasthan.
This blogpost is the kick-of for a photographic documentary in ten parts about that trip.
Today I give you a preview-in-fifty-pictures of this beautiful region.
Land of forts and palaces, of mountains and lakes, of heritage and nature. The sarees of the Rajasthani women have the most intense colors, as do the turbans of the men. Everything that can be adorned is decorated, it seems. Not only the people, but also their houses, animals, rikshaws and trucks.
People and animals live side by side; cows are everywhere, as are dogs, buffalo's, goats, pigs, camels, elephants, donkeys, monkeys and what not.
It is breathtakingly beautiful and utterly fascinating; I absolutely loved it!!! I hope you do too.
Have the above pictures made you curious and enthusiastic? Would you like to know more about certain pictures? Are you interested to see more from beautiful Rajasthan? Then do come back tomorrow and the days after!!! I will feature Jaipur, Udaipur, Amber and Pushkar.
Have a nice day!

Beautiful photos. Well done.
ReplyDeleteWhat surprises me, is the contrast between adornment and rubbish everywhere. Between beautifully decorated doors and electricity wires hanging loose across a building. Land of contrasts?
Greetje
Extreme contrasts, for sure. And then to imagine that I hardly showed any rubbish etc in the above pics!;-)
DeleteWow I loved the photos - makes me want to go and visit Rajasthan now!
ReplyDeleteYou should! We only had 5 days for 3 cities, so we saw only a bit....will have to go back there;-)
