Jaipur
Jaipur, the Pink City of Rajasthan, concentrates palace architecture, craft bazaars and Rajput history into a walkable old city, with Amber (Amer) Fort about 11 km north as the essential half-day excursion. Start fort mornings early before tour buses fill the courtyards; afternoons suit City Palace, Hawa Mahal views and textile or jewellery shopping. Heat builds quickly outside winter, so plan outdoor monuments for dawn and dusk and keep a driver or rideshare for the Amber–city circuit.
