Jaipur: Pink City
Founded in 1727 by Maharaja Sawai Jai Singh II, Jaipur is India’s first planned city and the historic capital of Rajasthan. Universally known as the "Pink City" after its buildings were painted terracotta-pink in 1876 to welcome the Prince of Wales, the city forms a vital corner of India’s famous Golden Triangle travel circuit alongside Delhi and Agra. Surrounded by the rugged Aravalli hills and fortified by hilltop bastions, Jaipur offers a vibrant mix of royal palaces, geometric observatories, and busy traditional bazaars.
