Rajasthan's Pink City — majestic Amber Fort, honeycomb-windowed Hawa Mahal; a desert capital of royal heritage and bazaars.

📍 Destination Overview

Jaipur, capital of Rajasthan, is the Pink City, its old town uniformly painted rose, and the third corner of the Golden Triangle. Amber Fort crowns a hill with palace mirror halls; the Hawa Mahal has honeycomb lattice windows, and Jantar Mantar is a precise open-air observatory. Old-town bazaars of gems and crafts lend exotic charm.
