| Jaipur, The
Pink City In the capital of Rajasthan, universally described as the "Pink City" on account of its soft red sandstone buildings and more poetically ascribed the sobriquet of the city in the tone of an autumn sunset, colour is a changing canvas.   Men wear colourful turbans that capture the vivid hues of a rainbow, and women capture the colour in the swirl of their skirts and the richness of their jewellry. |

And yet in its alleys and by lanes,
less than three centuries old could be a medieval city. In a capital built
strictly according to Hindu town planning structures that take into
account a rectilinear arrangements of roads and buildings, some of India's
most colourful celebrations are like medieval pageants as processions wind
their way down its significant length.   The shopping for enamel work jewellery, exquisite objects d'art, the joi de vivre of fabrics and fashions, antiques, handicrafts, blue pottery artifacts and much more is a rich experience, probably the best that India has to offer. |
| Its monuments too celebrate the royal
city. Brooding atop the scraping hill is Amber Fort which you can reach
seated atop beautiful caparisoned elephants. And what a range of palaces
and mansions here, exquisitely decorated with arts of the land. It is
a royal home as royal as the one that is your hotel, where you can indulge
your various imaginations. Amber was the traditional capital of the rulers
of the royal house till Sawai Jai Singh, in the 17th century, ordered
his state architect, Vidyadhar to begin the new city of Jaipur in the
plains below.
