India Rajasthan

Jaipur

The capital of Rajasthan, known as the Pink City, famed for its rich history, regal architecture, and vibrant culture.

Tips from the community

Jaipur — India’s Instagrammable pink city— is known for its famously pink City Palace and Hawa Mahal (both are worth a visit!). But a quick tuk tuk ride outside the city is where the most impressive architecture lies: the Nahargarh, Jaigarh, Amber Forts, and the Jal Mahal Palace. Amber Fort is the most spectacular, with intricate patterns and mirrors decorating its decadent rooms.
