Where the heck is Rajasthan and what is it like?
Bordering Pakistan on the west, Rajasthan is the north-western state of India and has an area of 0.342 million sq. kms. The Aravalli range runs from south-west to north-east and divides Rajasthan into two different regions. The western part is the Great Indian Desert “Thar” and the eastern comprises semi-arid as well as fertile green plains. The principal languages are Rajasthani and Hindi, but English is widely understood.
