JAIPUR VERY WELL KNOWN AS A PINK CITY IS 5-6 HOURS DRIVE FROM NEW DELHI DEPENDING ON THE TRAFFIC AND THE CONDITION OF THE ROAD, ITS A GOOD DRIVE OTHERWISE.
THE BEST WAY TO SEE JAIPUR IS JUST TAKE A CYCLE RICKSHAW AND REACH TO THE CORNERS AND SURROUNDINGS OF THE PINK CITY.THE OLD CITY IS ACTUALLY PINK IN COLOUR AND AS PER GOVERNMENT RULES OLD CIY HOUSES HAS TO BE PAINTED IN JAIPUR PINK COLOUR.ON MY OFF DAY I JUST TAKE MY CANON 350D SHOOT THE CITY.
THE PLACES YOU MUST SEE IN JAIPUR ARE AMBER FORT, JAIGARH FORT, NAHARGARH(PEOPLE GENERALLY GO TO NAHARGARH AT NIGHT TO DRINK, IT IS THE LOVERS JOINT AND MANY MURDERS AT NIGHT ALSO TAKES PLACE OVER THERE SO BE CAREFUELL. I HAVE BEEN TO THAT PLACE NUMBER OF TIMES), CITY PALACE MUSEUM, HAWA MAHAL, ALBERT HALL MUSEUM.
PLACES FOR SHOPPING IF YOU WANT TO BY JEWELLERY THEN GO TO JOHARI BAZAAR BUT MAKE SURE YOU HAVE THE KNOWLEDGE ELSE YOU WILL COME BACK EMPTY POCKET. THEN YOU CAN GO TO BAPU BAZAAR, NEHRU BAZAAR AND INDRA BAZAAR FOR HANDICRAFTS AND CLOTH MATERIAL( JAIPUR PRINTS). I PERSONALLY FEEL IF YOU WANT TO PICK UP CLOTH MATERIAL YOU MUST GO TO SIKAR BAZAAR, THERE YOU CAN BARGAIN A LOT.
RAMBAGH PALACE --TAJ HOTEL TOO EXPENSIVE
THERE ARE MANY 5 STARS HOTELS IN JAIPUR INCLUDING ITC SHERATON RAJPUTANA, OBEROI RAJ VILAS, TRIDENT, RAMBAGH, COUNTRY INN, RAMADA, HOLIDAY INN, RECENTLY OPENED MARRIOTT. IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR SOME HERITAGE STAY THEN THERE ARE MANY SMALL OLD HAVELIS CONVERTED INTO HOTELS ROOM NIGHT IN SUCH PROPERTIES GENERALLY COST ANYTHING BETWEEN 1500-5000 INR. FOR BAGPACKERS THERE ARE VERY LOW BUDGETED HOTELS LOCATED NEAR THE SINDHI CAMP BUS STAND WHICH RANGES ANYTHING BETWEEN 500--1500 INR.
