Nagaur Travels
This eight days fair held every year during the month
of Jan-Feb, is popularly known as the Cattle fair and
is
the second largest in Rajasthan. Nagaur Town is the most picturesque
of Rajput townships. Nagaur is a sea of animals, trading over 70,000
bullocks, camels and horses every year. The bullocks are known for their
fleetness. Not only are the animals lavishly decorated, even their owners
flaunt wearing colourful turbans and long moustaches.
Sports like tug-of-war, camel races, bullock races and cock fights; jugglers; puppeteers, story-tellers; and exciting campfire evenings are held to entertain the tourists. Folk music of the Jodhpur variation echoes the tranquil desert sand. Nagaur is well connected to the major cities by road and rail. Nearest airport is Jodhpur, some 135kms away.
Shearing sheep, handsome marwari horses to spices all compiled in one fair. Attractions include the mirchi bazaar (largest red-chilly market of India), wooden items, iron-crafts and camel leather accessories.
