As
the tempo of business goes down, the men folk turn to merriment, for the
day of the camel sports is at hand. Camel races are the first event. Usually
a lumbering beast of burden, the camel all decorated in finery, imagines
itself to be an ostrich, and rushes through the race like one. Then comes
the event analogous to musical chairs. Here, as the music stops, the camel
is supposed to manage to stick its long arching neck between two poles,
each camel owner guiding its entrant by means of a silken cord attached
to its nose ring.

The
contrast to the blank desert is the riot of Colours - the large gaudy turbans
of the native males arriving here to trade their animals or to set up the
stalls to cater to the booming captive market, and the loud hues of the
pleated ghagaras (ankle-length skirts) of the belles bangled by the armful,
bejewelled from head to toe-adding charm and zest to the massive affair.
A large number of traders gather at the Pushkar Fair and set up shops. They
sell a host of products like bead necklaces of Nagaur, woollen blankets
of Merta, textiles printed in Ajmer and Jodhpur, brassware of Jodhpur and
Jaipur etc. Also on sale are saddles, ropes, and assorted household items.
Vendors peddle their dazzling range of wares at hundreds of roadside stalls.
Small groups of men and women can be seen tatooing names and pictures on
their hands and other parts of the body.During the fair, cultural shows
and exhibitions are organized to enliven the event.
