Nagaur Fair
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.

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

Shearing sheep, handsome marwari horses to spices all compiled in one fair.
