Jaipur

Jaipur, the capital of Rajasthan, is world-famous for its distinct pink-hued buildings and rich royal heritage. Dominating the landscape is Amer Fort, perched atop the Aravalli Hills with grand courtyards and intricate mirror-work palaces. Within the city grid, explore the iconic honeycombed facade of Hawa Mahal (Palace of Winds), the sprawling City Palace complex where the royal family still resides, and Jantar Mantar observatory. Jaipur is also a haven for shopping, offering block-printed textiles, gemstone jewelry, and traditional footwear.
