Jaipur

Rajasthan’s Heritage City

Also called the Pink City, Jaipur is the capital of the royal state of Rajasthan. Rajputs ruled Jaipur for many centuries and developed as a planned city in the 17th century AD. With the old city surrounded by walls and gates decorated with drawings on the backdrop of a beautiful pink hue, Jaipur, the pink city, successfully retains its old-world charm. This makes Jaipur the gateway to Rajasthan - the starting point for places to visit in the interiors of the state. The metro, local buses, shared tuk-tuks, auto-rickshaws and taxi aggregator apps, including Uber and Ola, solve the commute problem in the city quite comfortably.
