I enjoyed your hub very much. I have many aquaintances from India and I love to hear their stories about their homeland. I also enjoyed the video in your hub, and I wonder if you could tell me if the red clothing and red flower petals are symbolic in some way?

Hi Linda. Thanks for showing interest in my hub.

Rajasthan is colorful because of what its people wear. The people of Rajasthan wear clothes with a special design called 'tie & die'. The preferred colors are bright red, dazzling yellow and lively green.

red flower petals - symbol of love and affections. Where as a red rose is the best medium to express your feelings.
