1. Begin with pick-up at 8.30 am from your desired place in Jaipur and visit this splendid modern marble edifice that lies at the foot of Moti Dungri fort - Birla Lakshmi Narayan Temple. The wealthy industrialist Birla family, from Pilani, Rajasthan, bought the land on which the temple now stands from the maharaja for a token sum of one rupee. Built with white marble it is also known as the Laxmi Narayan temple and is the sanctum sanctorum of Lord Vishnu and Goddess Lakshmi.

2. The beautiful 16th-century yellow-colored stepwell lies in the shadow of a famous fortress Amber Fort. A pretty baori (step-well) with geometrical designs and sharp shadows that has been restored. This setpwell was built so the people of Amer could collect water, which was later used at many temples nearby. Women also came here to fill their water pots for household work. Apart from this, Panna Meena ka Kund was a resting place for many travelers—business people and saints alike—as the temperature inside the stepwell is significantly cooler.

8. Built-in 1734 by the Hindu Rajput ruler, Maharaja Sawai Jai Singh II. He was the founder of Jaipur and chose to build the fort up in the Aravalli Hills to use as a retreat place and a home for his 9 wives. Each wife had a similar section of the fort. Nahargarh Fort, along with Amber Fort and Jaigarh Fort, once formed a strong defense for the city of Jaipur. After exploring the fort, what could be a more glorious way to end your day than watching an amazing sunset at Nahargarh Fort, the sky dipped in breathtaking colors. See the Panoramic shot of the pink city captured amidst the backdrop of a beautiful sunset sky. After a memorable day, your tour ends with a return to your hotel or other desired location in Jaipur.

About Jaipur

Jaipur, de Roze Stad van Rajasthan, is een koninklijke hoofdstad van forten, paleizen en bazaars tegen de woeste Aravalli-heuvels.

De muren van de oude stad omsluiten een stratenpatroon in terracottaroze kleur, dat in de achttiende eeuw werd aangelegd door maharadja Sawai Jai Singh II. In het hart mengt het Stadspaleis Rajput- en Mogolstijlen, kijkt de honingraatgevel van de Hawa Mahal, het Paleis van de Winden, neer op de straat, en volgen de gigantische astronomische instrumenten van Jantar Mantar nog steeds de zon.

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