The City Palace is a fabulous place to visit while you are in Jaipur. It is one of the must visit in the city. This isn't as large as the other palaces or forts in Delhi, Jaipur and Agra but this is worth visiting. However, I was very surprised with the ticket pricing here. It is way higher than the other tourist sites that we've been to.
Ticket Price: 700 rupees for foreign tourists
Getting There: The City Palace is in the heary of the Pik City so it easy to get to. Depending on where you are staying you can definitely just use tricycle or uber/taxi. Vwry convenient
Attractions - It's the archutecture itself and the weapon museum inside.
‼️Tips

Unveil the charm of Jaipur, the Pink City of India.
Located in the southwest of New Delhi, Jaipur is the capital of Rajasthan in northern India. It is known for its unique pink buildings and is known as the "Pink City".
👇
The history of Jaipur can be traced back to 1727 (during the Yongzheng period of the Qing Dynasty). Its founder was Maharaja Sawai Jai Singh II, the ruler of Rajasthan at that time. Jaipur is mainly rectangular and divided into six districts. The city is designed in a checkerboard pattern. In 1876, in order to welcome the visit of the Prince of Wales (later King Edward VII of the United Kingdom), King Maharaja Ram Singh ordered the entire city's buildings to be painted pink, which is the origin of the "Pink City".

Hawa Mahal was built in 1799 by Sawai Pratap Singh. It was built for the prince's concubines to watch the outside world through these dense small windows. These small windows are in the shape of half an octagon and are hollowed out into a honeycomb shape, with a total of 953. In addition, these windows can also play a role in air circulation.
Pic 5-11: Jaipur Palace is one of the best-preserved ancient sites in India. This palace was built after the city-state of Rajasthan surrendered to the Mughal Empire and was completed in 1728. The descendants of the royal family still live here. Its architectural style combines traditional Indian architecture and Islamic architecture, and the entire palace group is mainly made of white marble.

Went to Pink City and I was mesmerized in India!
❤️Pink City-Jaipur
The overall application for World Heritage was successful in 2019. Among them, the Govindev Temple, the Lord's Palace, Jantar Mantar and the Palace of Winds have all been included in the World Cultural Heritage. It is divided into new city and old city. Entering the chawri gate is the new city of Jaipur. The origin of pink is out of "gratitude" to the British colonial rulers
🌟World Heritage Jantar Mantar
Almost all ancient civilizations pay attention to the guidance from the night universe, and India is no exception. It was also founded by Jai Singh II, who particularly liked to pay attention to astronomy and mathematics. It has been listed as a World Heritage Site and has a total of 19 astronomical instruments, large and small, each with its own function. The largest sundial is several stories high.
🌟Palace of Winds
It is a symbol of Jaipur and even India. The cover of many versions of Indian LP is the Palace of Winds in Jaipur. Made of pink sandstone, the Palace of the Winds was built in 1799 and has a total of 953 windows on its five-story exterior. The original intention of its design was to allow the concubines to view the streets below without being seen by outsiders. They had to strictly abide by the mask regulations at that time.
🎭It is said that the best place to view the Wind Palace is the cafe opposite
🌟Amber Fort
Made of milky white, light yellow, rose red and pure white stones, it looks like amber from a distance, so it is called Amber Castle.
🌟City Palace
Located in the center of the old city of Jaipur, it is one of the best-preserved monuments in India. The buildings inside are beautiful and contain clothes, carpets, weapons, artworks, etc. left by the princes and nobles, witnessing the long history of India.

🌟Nahargarh Fort
Also called Tiger Fort, it is located on the hill north of the old city of Jaipur, overlooking the entire city. Tiger Fort has solid military defense facilities, which resisted attacks from foreign invaders time and time again.
🌟Water Palace
The Water Palace is a palace built on the water for the monarchs of Jaipur to escape the summer heat. It can only be reached by boat. It is the place where the royal family members spend their summer vacation. The palace itself is not open to the public, but looking from a distance by the lake, the palace seems to be floating on the water, and the night view is even more charming😻

India preserves the most complete palace, built nearly 300 years ago, with the royal descendants still living there today
The City Palace is probably one of the best-preserved buildings in Jaipur, situated in the heart of the old city and occupying a large area. Although it is not as famous as the Palace of the Winds, it is definitely a place worth visiting.
The grandeur and majesty of this palace complex are breathtaking. Eight gates, like eight guardians, protect this historical treasure. The architectural styles of the Rajasthani and Mughal eras are perfectly blended here, with colorful and unique designs, and every detail reveals the ingenuity and craftsmanship of the artisans.
The red and yellow buildings represent different cultures and styles. The red buildings, like the Sun Palace in Indian style, symbolize warmth and exuberance; the yellow buildings, like the Moon Palace in Islamic style, symbolize tranquility and mystery. The two styles complement each other, forming the unique charm of this palace.
Most of this building has now been converted into a museum for tourists to visit, showcasing the luxurious life of the Indian royalty. The waist swords and firearms used by the emperors of Rajasthan, as well as the exquisite daily necessities and treasures, are displayed in the museum, allowing people to glimpse the luxury and nobility of the royal family at that time. These artifacts are not only of historical value but also artistic treasures, showcasing the exquisite skills and endless creativity of ancient craftsmen.
Despite being nearly 300 years old, the ownership of the palace still belongs to the Jaipur royal family, and the royal family still lives in the Moon Palace of the complex, which is somewhat surprising.

City Palace, Jaipur, India
Beautiful palace and great arc6in the centre of the city, with several museum rooms showcasing different art, armour, weapons and antiques from the collection of the royal family. Wonderful experience seeing the beauty of the monuments up close front. Must visit place once when you're in Jaipur. We can spend good 2-3 hours here. Lots of good picture clicking spots as well.
City Palace is situated close to Hawa Mahal. Guided tours are available, where you get to see the beautiful architecture, the history, and listen to stories about warriors going to war. In case if you wish to have a royal your inside the palace, the charges are extra.

Pink City Jaipur tour guide, to the years of civilization
Jaipur's "even harmony" is considered to be a stunning beauty and rich artistic culture, so that this piece of blessed land is called "pink City, "Pink Gem", "Traveler Eden" or "City of Triumph". Built by the Rajputs, in the color language of the Rajputs, pink represents hospitality. So in this city, the palaces, gates, and the roofs and walls of the residents are almost all pink. But it is not a delicate girl powder, but rather a dull red brown.
Sights 1:
[Attraction Overview]: The city palace is surrounded by high walls and divided into palaces, gardens and other buildings. The palace blends the architectural styles of the Mughal dynasty and the Lachche. Because there are still royal families living here, only some areas are open. There are a lot of foreign travel experts on the ins, and Jaipur is very beautiful. I have a good impression and expectation for Jaipur. But to tell the truth, I think certain attractions are scams. For example, the city palace is much smaller than expected, and there are not many places to visit. It takes only one hour to visit.
[Playing Overview]: The
private chamber is decorated with marble floors and crystal chandeliers. The whole building is pink and full of girls.
Sights 2: Hurricane Palace h
[Attraction Overview]:
Jaipurs most famous building is the Palace of the Winds, also known as Hawa Mahal Palace ". Built by the master and poet Bilata Singer for the royal women, they are able to enjoy a day of leisure and fun, away from the dull life of the magnificent palace. Today, this palace has become the coordinates of the "Pink City". The building is also smaller than expected, but it is indeed exquisitely designed.
[Playing Overview]:
Each of the pointed structures here is like a facade, but also a meticulous masterpiece of pink sandstone in fantasy. It has 953 windows and beautifully designed lace fine lines, elegant roof curves, charming domes and spires. There is no spectacular lobby behind the wall, and there are no gorgeous rooms. These windows are made of red sandstone and are half-octagonal.
Attraction 3:
[Attraction Overview]:
India has many ladder water wells, which is only a small one. But it has fascinated us for a long time. The Indian film "The Golden Flower Hotel" was once used for the scene. In the movie, a boy and girl are sitting on the ladder water well. The boy said to the girl: "I can't marry you, because my mother is against it."
[Playing Overview]
When doing the Raiders, first see the fast There is a moon water well Chand Baori on the outskirts of Poole, which is 1100 years old and bigger and more spectacular. But because of the time, I can't get there. So I went to Panna Meena Kund, a stepped well near Amber Fort, deep in the alley around 800 meters near Amber Fort.

The city palace of Udaipur is a must-see attraction in the White City. The City Palace is the largest palace in Rajasthan and the soul of the city or the reason for its existence. There are also forts and watchtowers in the palace. The palace was built by the founder of the White City, the prince Udai Singh II, and later expanded through many of the princes. The theme of the
city palace has now been built into a museum with a large collection of different kinds of historical sites. Tickets: 200 rubles.
Very like the city palaces that look out over Lake Pichola, especially in the evening, the sun dyes everything golden. And when you walk into the palace, you will feel even more shocked. The front wall of the palace is 244 meters long and 30.4 meters high.
The city palace that looks out from Lake Pichola. If the Mehrangar Fort is the reason for the existence of the Blue City, the imperial palace in front of it is the reason for the existence of the White City, his existence. It's not just about looking at the opposite of Lake Pichola. He has to tell the story of the city for the tourists.

Jaipur is famous for its pink architecture. The city palace is also a prestigious place. It was built in the red sandstone building in the heart of Jaipurs old city 300 years ago and is a large city in Jaipur. One of the palace complexes. The palace building has been polished by several generations of princes, and the building has integrated the Indian style of Rajasthan with the Islamic style of the Mughal dynasty. It presents a very rich visual effect, which stands out in the long river of time. Withstand the storm, and show us its unique beauty with a vicissitudes and failures.

Personally think that the most ornamental in the city palace should be the four beautiful small doors in the west side yard, which represent the four seasons and Hindu gods. The most gorgeous one is the Peacock Gate, which symbolizes autumn. The central statue is Vishnu. The portrait of the corner should be the auspicious goddess, Vishnu's wife Lakshmi; the lotus gate represents summer, the central image is Shiva, and the portrait of the corner is Shivas wife, Snow Mountain Goddess Parvati; the rose door represents winter, the goddess is the goddess Devi; the green door represents spring, and the statue is the son of Shiva like the god Ganesha.
I walked away from the city palace and I walked in the old town. I felt a little disappointed with Jaipur. Because as the capital of Rajasthan, Jaipur is still a busy big city, far from its alias "Pink City" so romantic, and the "pink" here is not too powder. But then again, in India, the use of pink so dirty colors may not be more romantic.
