About Jaipur

Jaipur, die Rosa Stadt Rajasthans, ist eine königliche Hauptstadt aus Forts, Palästen und Basaren vor den schroffen Aravalli-Hügeln.

Die Mauern der Altstadt umschließen ein Raster terrakottarosa gestrichener Straßen, im 18. Jahrhundert von Maharadscha Sawai Jai Singh II. angelegt. In ihrer Mitte verbindet der Stadtpalast Rajputen- und Mogulstil, die wabenförmige Fassade des Hawa Mahal, des Palasts der Winde, blickt auf die Straße hinab, und die riesigen astronomischen Instrumente von Jantar Mantar verfolgen noch immer die Sonne.

Top-ranked sights in Jaipur: Palace of Wind (Hawa Mahal), City Palace, Jal Mahal (Water Palace).
