cityscape to behold. Known as the Pink City, it gets this label from the panorama of pink-shaded houses
lining the old city. Lying in Eastern Rajasthan, Jaipur is an enthralling mix of age-old temples, grand forts,
opulent palaces and magnicent museums. From the royal City Palace to the extravagant Jal Mahal, from the
majestic Nahargarh fort to the awe-inspiring Hawa Mahal- all forms Jaipurs glory. The unrivalled
extravagance of the Amber Fort is the citys star attraction which dazzles every visitor.
A bustling metropolis, Jaipur is a melting pot of different cultures and traditions. Languages like Marwari and
Rajasthani are prominent along with Hindi. The amboyancy of the rich Rajasthani culture reverberates in
Jaipurs festive fervour. The city comes alive while hosting the myriad of festivals like Teej and Gangaur. Its
unique cultural heritage expresses itself during the Elephant festival where the mighty animal acquires a
unique festive spirit.
