Tourist Attractions in Jaipur

Tourist Attractions in Jaipur


There is no dearth of things that one can do in Jaipur. To begin with there is sight-seeing, and the city offers an incredible array of historical sites. Right from forts like the Amer Fort, Jaigarh Fort, and Nahargarh Fort, to the City Palace to other monuments like the Jantar Mantar and Hawa Mahal, Jaipur’s rich history offers innumerable opportunities to catch a glimpse into the past.

Other Places like the Jal Mahal, the Royal Cenotaphs, Statue circle , Galta, and Ramgarh, also afford similar opportunities.

Apart from sight-seeing, Jaipur is a shopper’s paradise. The founders and builders of the city made sure to provide enough space and facilities that enabled craftsmen to produce and market handicrafts easily. Entire streets were set aside for such commercial activity and much of the city’s handicrafts became famous all over the country and remain to be so even today.

One of the things that Jaipur is most known for is jewellary. Be it precious or semi-precious stones, diamonds, emeralds or topaz, this is a highly active market and has excelled in related areas like the cutting, polishing and setting of these stones. In addition to this there is the Jaipur brasswork –lacqured and carved- that is well known. Camel leather is another popular object and lampshades made of it adorn rooms all over the country.

The Jaipuri craftsmen/women are incredibly talented in intricate handiwork as can be seen in the enameled minakari and kundan work they do an which is a specialty of the city.

In the area of textiles one can find the traditional shanganari , tie and dye and bagru prints that one cannot help but admire for their colors, evenness and ethnicity.

One of the best features of jaipur is that it has a number of fairs (elephant fair) and festivals like Gangaur and Teej that are unique. It is a worthwhile experience to be in Jaipur during this time and to see the entire city come alive in celebrating them with colour, abandon and festivities.

Jaipur is one of the most well-connected cities in the country, largely due to the fact that it is such a huge tourist attraction. A special luxury train called the ‘Palace on Wheels’ runs once a week from Delhi from September to April. The train, which goes on round trip of the State of Rjasthan makes its first stop in Jaipur. In addition to this there are numerous other buses and trains (luxury as well as ordinary) available.

Although the whole if Rajasthan is known for its beauty and immense cultural appeal, Jaipur is special because of its double capacity of being modern as well as traditional. Being the capital it is up to date with all the amenities of a urban center and has still managed to retain its original flavor of folk richness. Even today the city of Jaipur can help you to escape into an ethereal past and experience a richness of color, culture and history.
