Not to be missed in Jaipur

 Here we are talking about some of the must see places in Jaipur, Rajasthan. The pink city of Jaipur was once the capital of the kings of the country. With no less force it is today the capital of the princely state of Rajasthan. This colorful and impressive city is located at a distance of 260 km from the capital of India. One of the best hotels for your trip to Rajasthan is the Mandawa Haveli Hotel. It is close to some of the surprisingly interesting monuments found here, such as the Hawa Mahal, Albert Hall, Fort Amer, and the City Palace. Both tourists and locals appreciate the advantages of the city, such as local attractions and shopping. Some of these tourist attractions are:

 

Hawa mahal

 

In Hindi, "Hawa" means air and "Mahal" means a magnificent mansion. In fact, it is a palatial façade adorned with nine hundred and fifty-three windows and niches of inconceivable delicacy. It is surprising to know that behind the facade there is no building, only a maze of corridors and rest areas. In the past, these were used by the royal women of Zenana. They used it to get a glimpse of the city and see processions through the streets below. The façade has been cleverly structured to catch the wind and is therefore known as the "Palazzo dei Venti".

 

The city palace

 

It is the royal residence of the former ruling family of Jaipur. The palace is located in the center of the city, it covers one seventh of the city and is surrounded by the high wall called Sarahad. The architectural beauty of this place is attributed to the elements of Rajput beauty here accompanied by English linear planning. The royal family of Jaipur still resides here in the section called the peacock courtyard and is therefore no longer open to the public.

 

Amer Fort

 

Amer Fort is one of the most important Rajput cities and was the ancient capital of Kacchwala Rajputs in the 12th century. It is a group of fortresses from the 17th century that occupies a steep hill.

 

Albert Hall Museum

 

This is a museum in the middle of the Ram Niwas garden in Jaipur. It was built in 1876 on the occasion of the visit of the Prince of Wales to the city of Jaipur. The sandstone and marble building is in the Indo-Islamic Saracenic style. The museum contains an excellent collection of paintings, decorative art objects, sculptures, natural history displays, an Egyptian mummy, and a famous Persian garden carpet. It also contains a beautiful observatory called Jantar Mantar.
