One of the important days celebrated in Rajasthan every year is Rajasthan Diwas. It is celebrated on March 30. This day is also known as Foundation day. In 1949, Rajasthan was established, and Jaipur was given as its capital city.
Rajasthan is rich in culture and tradition. Even though many Rajasthanis are migrating to other states and countries, we can see them following their culture and tradition.
Rajasthan is the largest state since it has the largest area. Tourists would know Rajasthan by names like “Land of Kingdom” or “Land of King.” Rajasthan stands in the 7th place as the most significant state economy and population.
