Destination Guide

Discover Jaipur

The enchanting Pink City of India, where royal heritage and modern vibrant culture exist in perfect harmony.

Welcome to the Pink City

Capital of the majestic state of Rajasthan, Jaipur is a city that breathes history. Founded in 1727 by Maharaja Sawai Jai Singh II, it was one of the earliest planned cities of modern India. The city was famously painted pink in 1876 to welcome the Prince of Wales, a color associated with hospitality, and it has proudly retained this characteristic blush ever since.

From the intricately carved facades of the Hawa Mahal to the imposing walls of the Amber Fort, Jaipur is a living museum. But beyond the monuments, the true essence of Jaipur lies in its bustling bazaars, its world-renowned jewelry and textiles, and the incredibly warm hospitality of its local people.
