Sports in Rajasthan have always been considered as an interesting way of passtime. Like bravery, sporting culture is also the part of their royal patronage. There are few royal games like horse riding, camel riding and polo, which were known as a status symbol for the Rajasthan rulers. Polo is one of the most preferred games for royal people because of their riding skills, which are remarkably superior. With the highest level of enthusiasm, people of royal background and some professional players participate in these games that are organized every year for serving the social cause. Besides these, flora and fauna of Rajasthan also encourages aero sports whose list seems endless. Ballooning, para-sailing, gliding and so on can also be tried out in Rajasthan.
