Itinéraire

1. Jantar Mantar is a UNESCO-listed astronomical observatory built by Maharaja Sawai Jai Singh II. It features a collection of large stone and marble instruments designed to measure time, track stars and predict eclipses with surprising accuracy. The most famous structure is the Samrat Yantra, a giant sundial that can tell the time within minutes. It’s a great place to see how science and architecture came together in 18th-century Jaipur.

   1 h

2. City Palace is one of Jaipur’s most admired landmarks. It sits in the heart of the old city and blends Rajput architecture with subtle Mughal and European touches. Inside, you’ll find grand courtyards, detailed gates, royal museums and well-preserved chambers that once belonged to the Maharajas of Jaipur. It offers a close look at royal costumes, weapons, artwork and the lifestyle of the Jaipur rulers, making it a key stop for anyone exploring the Pink City.

   2 h

3. Hawa Mahal, also known as the Palace of Winds, is one of Jaipur’s most iconic sights. Its five-story façade is built with pink sandstone and shaped like a honeycomb, featuring hundreds of small windows that let cool air flow through the palace. It was designed so the royal women could watch street life and festivals while staying out of view. Today, it’s a popular spot for photos and a quick stop to admire Jaipur’s unique architectural style.

   30 min

4. Royal Gaitor is a quiet and beautiful complex known for the marble cenotaphs of Jaipur’s former rulers. It sits at the base of the Nahargarh hills and is often less crowded, which makes it easy to take in the detailed carvings and peaceful surroundings. Each cenotaph reflects the legacy of the king it honors, with delicate pillars, domes and hand-carved patterns. It’s a good place to explore Jaipur’s royal history away from the busy city streets.

   45 min

5. Jal Mahal, or the Water Palace, sits in the middle of Man Sagar Lake and is one of Jaipur’s most scenic landmarks. Its calm setting, with the Aravalli hills in the background, makes it a popular photo stop. Although visitors can’t go inside, the view from the lakeside is beautiful, especially at sunrise and sunset. The palace blends Rajput and Mughal styles and appears to float on the water, giving it a peaceful, almost magical feel.

   15 min

6. Optional visit to a traditional hand block printing factory, where you can observe the age-old process of textile printing, try your hand at block printing, and interact with skilled local artisans who have preserved this craft for generations.

About Jaipur

Jaipur, la Ville rose du Rajasthan, est une capitale royale de forts, de palais et de bazars sur fond de collines abruptes des Aravalli.

Les murailles de la vieille ville enserrent un quadrillage de rues peintes en rose terre cuite, tracé au XVIIIe siècle par le maharaja Sawai Jai Singh II. En son cœur, le palais de la Ville mêle styles rajput et moghol, la façade en nid d'abeille du Hawa Mahal, le palais des Vents, domine la rue, et les instruments astronomiques géants de Jantar Mantar suivent toujours le soleil.
