Polo, the game with the equestrian
glory in Jaipur is an added star with a high
reputation in sports. India is credited for
the birth of such a splendorous game founded
by the Mughal dynasty. Unfortunately, during
the upsurge of the British dynasty in India,
this game lost its popularity and valor. It
got limited to the northern mountainous
areas of Gilgit, Chitral, Ladakh and
Manipur.
Now, modern polo has undergone tremendous
evolution in itself as it has not been
barricaded to the royalty only. Many polo
teams have emerged from various parts of the
country which add to the universal quotient
of this wonderful game. In addition,
delightfully, many companies and firms
sponsor this game and teams generously and
organize polo holidays in Jaipur.
Patronized by the royalty and the Maharajas
of Jaipur, polo has an unmatched tradition
and provides a pleasurable experience to
both the players as well as the audience.
Boasting with some outstanding international
players to contain, Jaipur provides a haven
for tourists to bump into when the ‘bowl’ is
in.
