The Camel Festival is a colorful fair where thousands of people, camels and horses come from all parts of the nation every year. This village is situated on the edge of a small lake that is said to be of divine origin.

What eat in Pushkar Mela

Photographing the Pushkar Mela without eating Local food is a grave sin. In fact it would be an incomplete Workshop. So during this day we will taste amazing ethnic food recipes. Indeed the Rajasthan’s cuisine is rich and diverse alike its culture and tradition. So any photographers will be delighted to explore the gastronomic delights in this desert state. It is home to dominant flavors as the climate here is arid which allows for the production of famous Indian spices used in the various iconic dishes made here.The culinary style of the region to a great extent shaped up according to the bellicose lifestyle of the natives. Unavailability of a variety of fresh vegetables, fruits and other ingredients and scarcity of water due to the arid nature of the region has profound effect on the cooking style of the locals.
