Accommodation Rajasthan
Rajasthan the colorful state famous for
hospitality, fosters the tradition of Atithi Deo Bhav. The people
revere guests as God and offer them their best. Rajasthan is also
a land rich in culture tradition and history. The Rajput rulers
of Rajputana (Rajasthan) built magnificent palaces – large,
lavish buildings that featured the best architectural motifs of
Indian, Mughal and British architecture. They contained large
ballrooms, separate women’s quarters, and vast numbers of
rooms for housing royal families and their retinues.
They were invariably set in huge, landscaped gardens. Some
features truly inspired architecture; others, no less impressive,
attempted to duplicate famous palaces in Britain. And there were
palaces for every reason – for different seasons of the
year, some in the same city; for favorite queens, or for the heir
apparent; or sometimes modestly called hunting lodges ! These
same palaces stand witness to times past. Some have been
converted into museums, and those times are evocatively portrayed
here, in all their princely splendor. Others are now hotels,
where the luxurious lifestyle of the Maharajas, Rajas &
Thakurs – for it is available to you too! All over
Rajasthan, you can sample the glorious of yesterday in the palace
hotels of your choosing.
