Elegantly ensconced in the rugged hills of the Aravalis, Jaipur is the pristine jewel in the desert sands of Rajasthan. With its origins buried deep in the pages of history, this city still exudes a magical old world charm with its ambient aura of chivalry and romance.
Rightfully having earned for itself the sobriquet of ‘Pink City', this resplendent capital of Rajasthan with its magnificent forts and palaces, was founded in 1727 A.D. by one of the greatest Rajput rulers, Jai Singh II. Surrounded by hills on three sides and home to sprawling mansions and exquisitely laid out gardens, Jaipur is the only city in the world which is subdivided into nine rectangular sectors symbolizing the nine divisions of the universe. And is the first planned city designed in accordance with ‘Shilpa Shastra', the epochal treatise on Hindu architecture.
