Every region has its own very dialect of music and dance. The Ghoomar dance from Udaipur and Kaibeliya dance of Jaisalmer have international recognition. Folk music is a vital part of Rajasthan culture. Songs are used to tell the legendary battles of Rajputs. Folk songs are commonly ballads which relate heroic deeds, love stories, and religious or devotional songs known as bhajans and banis and often accompanied by musical instruments like dholak, sitar, sarangi etc. Know Rajasthan Culture.
The music is of uncomplicated innocence and songs depict day-to-day relationships and chores more often focal around bring of water. Rajasthan's cultural wall-hanging takes in simple folk to highly cultivated classical music and dance in its own distinct style.The Thar, and with it, all of Rajasthan, is known as the most colourful desert in the world. Fairs & Festivals, lilting music, lively dances and the dazzling attire of the people punctuate its barrenness, turning the land into a fertile basin of colour and creativity.
