Day
01 / Arrival Jaipur
Arrive Jaipur, Meet assist at the airport &

Jaipur- the fabled 'pink city' of the desert named
after Jai Singh, the former Maharaja of Jaipur.
This is the only city in the world symbolizing
the nine divisions of the universe through the
nine rectangular sectors subdividing it. The palaces
and forts of the yesteryears, which were witnesses
to the royal processions and splendours, are now
living monuments.

After a leisurely breakfast, visit the majestic
Amber Fort, one that cannot be easily described.
You ride up on Elephants to the former capital
of the royals set against the backdrop of the
wooded hills. Post lunch tour of the Palace of
Winds also known as Hawa Mahal. This elaborate
building, now little more than a façade,
is encrusted with delicate screens and carved
balconies from which the royal ladies, confined
to their quarters, could sneakily view the outside
world. Past, present and future merge at Jai Singh's
observatory, where time has been accurately measured
since the 17th century. Later also visit Birla
Mandir-a unique monument with exquisite marble
carvings. In the evening enjoy your dinner at

where you will have an idea of the village life
of Rajasthan. Also enjoy various traditional Rajasthani
dances, puppet show and various other interesting
activities. Overnight at hotel.
