Great Buildings of Jaipur
Jaipur, the capital city of Rajasthan, India was once the capital of royalty. Located in the desert lands of India, Jaipur is this country’s first planned city and over 3 million residents call Jaipur home. When planning your next trip, be sure and place Jaipur as a top contender as a most desired city to visit. Research the city, the area, the country, the people and their cultures and heritages and you will be drawn here. Over the centuries, Jaipur has become an extremely popular destination for tourists the world over.
The climate is considered semi-arid with fairly hot summer days with the monsoons adding humidity. The other seasons are relatively mild and pleasant, making for ideal sightseeing and outdoor excursions throughout the city. The architecture here is breathtaking to say the least. The palaces and temples, the museums and other historic buildings are exquisite in their design as well as the material used in their construction. You have to see the Albert Hall Museum, the Hawa Mahal, the Lakshmi-Narayan Temple, the Jal Mahal and the Rambagh Palace, just to name a few of these fabulous buildings.
However, the architecture should not be the only thing on your agenda. Take in the rich, colorful gardens, the shopping with top name shops and unique boutiques, the vibrant festivals, experience the exciting music and dancing as you visit the local nightclubs. And of course you will want to stay at one of the many five star Jaipur hotels and allow yourself to be pampered and spoiled. The friendly, well-trained staff is ready to attend to your comforts as you partake of the many amenities. And what about the restaurants? Experience the various and sometimes unusual spices and herbs used in the delicious local cuisine. From the onset of planning this trip to reliving it through your photos and memories, Jaipur will be a treasured experience.
