Jaipur tours, getaways, and places to see<\/h2>\n

Jaipur is a historical and cultural treasure house. It\u2019s the capital of the great state of Rajasthan, gateway to the Thar desert, home of architectural marvels and UNESCO heritage sites, and so much more. I have planned this list of Jaipur tours, getaways, and places to see to showcase the best this magnificent city has to offer. The day tours include the arts and crafts of Jaipur, and the many talented artisans that work in the city and surrounding area. Jaipur is known for a wide range of products such as textiles, block printing, gemstones, jewellery, shoes, rugs, pottery, art, and much more.<\/p>\n

About Jaipur<\/h3>\n

Jaipur was one of the world\u2019s first planned cities when it was founded by Maharaja Sawai Jai Singh II in 1727. Today the city is a colourful blend of magnificent forts and palaces, bustling bazaars and markets, and hip cafes and opulent hotels. Jaipur is known as the Pink City because the walls and buildings of the old city are all painted a terracotta-pink. A city of artisans, Jaipur is known for arts and crafts such as gemstones and jewelry, enamel work, block-print fabrics and hand-embroidered textiles, leather juttis and bags, stone sculptures and blue pottery, and much more. Jaipur is also a city of polo, and the star player is the young Maharaja Sawai Padmanabh \u201cPacho\u201d Singh. Above everything, Jaipur is an extraordinarily colourful place. On its streets you see women in brilliant red and orange head coverings and sweeping skirts, and men in their equally vivid turbans and upturned moustaches. <\/p>\n

Jaipur City tour 1: Royal Footsteps<\/h3>\n

This tour will take you to Jaipur\u2019s iconic sites, and trace the city\u2019s history from the medieval period to the present. Start your tour with a visit to UNESCO-listed Amer Fort, one of the most spectacular and well-maintained medieval forts and palaces in India. Amer, a small town about 11 kilometres from Jaipur, was the original settlement before Jaipur was built in the early 18th century. Afterwards, return to the Pink City to tour the magnificent City Palace, where the Jaipur royal family lives to this day. <\/p>\n

The City Palace tour includes a visit to Jantar Mantar \u2014 an 18th century observatory with massive astronomical instruments.
