Trees do not have locomotive organs; hence they stay at the same place for ever. Birds and animals can move; hence they do not stay at the same place for ever. We human beings also can fly and run with the help of modern means of transport, then why not travel? Why should we stay at the same place forever?

Rajasthan is a haven for travellers – a perfect blend of luxury, culture, simplicity, history, art and architecture, natural beauty – deserts as well as forests : and above all beautiful, down-to-earth people. Rajasthan hospitality is the best in India.
