Jaipur, the capital city of the state of Rajasthan,
is one of the most vibrant cities of India. Famous for its colourful
culture, forts, palaces, and lakes the city basks in the glory of a
rich and eventful past. Popularly known as the Pink City, it was
founded in 1727 AD by one of the greatest rulers of the Kachhawaha
clan, King Sawai Jai Singh. The old city of Jaipur has neat and
broadly laid – out avenues, all painted pink that gives a magical
glow to the city, especially in the evenings. |
