Culture

Rajkot is a vibrant city where you find people from different castes and religions. Rajkot people are predominantly vegetarians and are vehemently against any form of hunting. This could be the main reason for the survival of rich fauna in this city.

The women of Rajkot are very fond of jewellery. Large chains, pendants and other heavy gold jewellery are a common sight during marriages and festivals. The Rajkot men love to flaunt thick gold chains and numerous rings on their fingers.

Rajkot is a major regional center for the arts, with many venues for the performing arts in the city. Hemu Gadhvi Natyagruha, one of the first non-profit regional theatres, is rich with history and dedicated to the Gujarati Play.

Rajkot city is best known as a place that mixes tradition with modernity. This perfect blend is evident in its architecture and cuisine. The 21st century has not left Rajkot India trailing behind.
