Welcome to Jaipur! Indulge yourself into the Pink city of India
The love for Jaipur in the hearts of its visitors is immense. Jaipur is a culturally rich city with a lot to offer: beautiful modern infrastructure, historic palaces and museums, art galleries, and the Old Pink City of Jaipur.
There is something special about the city that will make you fall in love with it. It was way ahead of its time, as it was one of the first planned cities in India. Maharaja Sawai Jai Singh founded it in 1727.
He had a great interest in Mathematics, Architecture, and Astronomy. It is believed that he consulted several Architectural books from around the world before planning the Jaipur City.
Though the modern infrastructure has taken over the old settlements, a stroll in the Old Pink City of Jaipur is still an old-fashioned vibe.
