Pushkar (Rajasthan), Oct 15 (ANI): Cottages built on the pattern of Arabian architecture has become a major tourist attraction in Pushkar in Rajasthan.

Rajendra Singh, director of the Arabian Resort, said that the ambience of Pushkar resembled Arabia in many ways, which encouraged him to come out with this resort.

“The ambience of Pushkar resembles Arabia in many ways. We have sand dunes and camel cart. So, we thought of building the cottages built on the lines of Arabian architecture in Pushkar,” said Singh.

To give the real Arabian feel, the interiors and exteriors have been designed in Arabian style. The roof of the cottage is designed in such a way that the moonlight directly enters the cottage.

Krishan Singh, manager of the Arabian Resort said, ” We have used this concept for the first time in India, I think. The roof of the cottage is temporary. It looks natural as if it’s made out of cloth. There is wooden flooring plus there is swimming pool at the backyard.”

Over the years, the Pushkar fair has become a big draw internationally for the state.The Rajasthan Government promotes the fair by adding colourful folk dances, musical events and other cultural events. (ANI)
