Jaipur, the Pink City, is the capital of Rajasthan. Famous for its majestic forts, the honeycomb Hawa Mahal, historic observatories, and vibrant bazaars selling royal crafts.
Jaipur was founded in 1727 by Maharaja Sawai Jai Singh II and is celebrated as India's first planned city. Its signature nickname, the Pink City, comes from the terracotta-pink color painted across its historical buildings, a gesture introduced in 1876 to welcome the Prince of Wales.
Today, Jaipur is a UNESCO World Heritage site and forms the cornerstone of the famous Golden Triangle tourist circuit. The city seamlessly blends its royal heritage—manifested in Amber Fort, Hawa Mahal, and the City Palace—with bustling local markets offering fine jewelry, block-printed textiles, and traditional Rajasthani cuisine.
