Jaipur- off the beaten trail in the ‘Pink’City

India’s official ‘Pink City’, there’s much more to Rajasthan’s capital than it’s pink-red tinged buildings and historic splendour.This majestic home to earnstwhile royals is complete with old world charm surrounded by colourful market and chaotic streets.

After 6 hours away from Delhi,grand palaces and haveli is surrounded by mighty fortresses make Jaipur a welcome respite from-high rise malls and urban living.Blue pottery and more.Look out for the camel’s strolling through busy streets of Jaipur.Places like Amer fort,Hawa Mahal,Johari Bazaar and JantarMantar, can’t be missed.If you are traveling in October you can experience donkey festival.
