Travel Photo: Colorful Rajasthan

The world knows about Rajasthan and the myriad of colors it offers. There is color everywhere. The women and their colorful dresses. The markets and even the men. The pagdi (turban) is their main colorful accessory and come with a rich dash of colors that contrast so well with their plain clothes that I sometimes wonder why we don’t wear such colorful turbans as a fashion accessory.

In this case, I befriended this guard at the Mehrangarh Fort who was dressed in traditional attire. Not only are the people of Rajasthan colorfully dressed, they are also very cordial and hospitable. I never came across a single person who was not helpful to me. Damn! I am already missing Rajasthan!
