Desert Festival
Once
a year in winters and on the middle of the continually rising and falling stark
yellow sands of the great Thar Desert, the empty sands around Jaisalmer come alive
with the brilliant colour, music and laughter of the Desert Festival.
The festival is organised by the tourist authorities as tourist entertainment
around January-February.
The very rich and colourful Rajasthani folk
culture is on show here for a few days.
Rajasthani men and tall beautiful
women dressed in their brightly costumes dance and sing lingering ballads of valour,
romance and tragedy. Traditional musicians attempt to outdo each other in their
musical superiority.
