Buzzing with the warm energies of bazaars and vividly imagined festivals, the ‘Pink City’ of Jaipur (built in imitation of sandstone) is the beloved capital city of Rajasthan, and a favorite among tourists eager to explore what has been understood as the ‘Golden Triangle’ of India in the world of travel. Jaipur is remarkable among pre-modern Indian cities for the width and regularity of its streets.

Among the sights to see are locals dressed in traditional gear, a wealth of handicrafts, a royal legacy of (blush pink) palaces, and much more. Jaipur's famous bazaars sell Rajasthani jewellery, fabric, embroidered leather shoes, blue pottery, tie and dye scarves and other exotic wares.
