Ever heard about Elephant polo ? We’ll for those who dont know about this .. Elephant polo is a variation of horse polo, is one of the main attraction of the Elephant Festival, which takes place every year just the day before Holi in Jaipur.

Elephants were the favored beast of Rajput kings, not only during war but in royal celebrations as well. In addition to elephant polo, the festival also features parades of painted and decorated elephants, and games of tug-o-war between elephants and people. Some adventurous visitors may even get the opportunity to play Holi — that is, drench people in colored water — on elephant back!
