City of Pink, JAIPUR



Like innumerable people who visited the pink city i felt like taking a few gallons of pink paint and start painting every house in my city, hoping it will turn out to be a hottest destination like the Jaipur (pink city), But only after roaming in jaipur i realized my plan will never workout even after centuries because jaipur have much more than just the pink city to attract like forts, palaces and most importantly the tourist loving people.

The Great Wall of Amber

     All the 11 k.m stretch from jaipur my eyes searched for the views amber fort, but the moment i reached amber fort my jaw dropped and my eyes started looking the other side of the fort at the majestic wall. The wall is almost 3 feet wide and stretches for kilometres protecting the fort. I was wondering can this wall be constructed in this period, but left the thought for the Royal kings of rajasthan.                                        
Albert Hall Museum

                                                                                                              We need not necessarily go to Albert hall Museum to see its artefacts and paintings in it, with plenty of pigeon lovers feeding countless pigeons in front of the museum building is a worth watching. The mythological stories on bronze, Ivory Sculptures of Achilles, Rajput and Egyptian paintings are worth Visiting.                                                                   

Egyptian Paintings in Museum
It city palace was beautifully painted and it shows vividly how luxuriously the kings used to spend their lives, a part of city palace is residence of the royal family.
I was dumbstruck when i went to jantar mantar and seen the astronautical instruments which the then king made by himself. It Has the worlds largest sun dial, which shows time with 2 seconds accuracy.
