Desert Dance


We saw a series of Rajasthani folk dances peformed, inside a havalli house that's been converted into a museum. Here they're performing a traditional Thar Desert dance ladies are supposed to do when they find water in the well after a rain. The village women we work fetch water in such clothing, behind veils, toting it in tanks on their heads. But I've yet to see them burst into dance! Posted by Hello
