Vendors peddle a mind-boggling array of colourful items that add to the note of festivity. Mirror-worked quilts, gaudy skirts, chunky jewellery, pots, unique-looking handicrafts, woollen items, shawls, tie and dye fabric, marble artefacts, folk paintings, colourful ribbons, bells, beads, saddles are spread across yard after yard.

For the rural folk Pushkar is a god sent opportunity to earn a small fortune by hawking a few wares. Of late the colourful desert ambience and ethnicity attracts tourists by the thousands. And rural folk arriving in Pushkar for the first time, gaze in wonder at the foreign tourists.
