About Jaipur

Jaipur was founded in 1727 by Maharaja Sawai Jai Singh II and planned on a grid, unusual for its time. Its old centre is famed for pink-washed buildings, and the palaces, observatory and hill forts reflect the Rajput royal court. It is a classic stop on Rajasthan itineraries and a start or end point for palace-style rail journeys.
