ITINERARY IN DETAIL
Day01 Arrive Jaipur
Welcome to your 'Folklands and Forts of Rajasthan' tour! On arrival l at the airport / railway station in Jaipur you will be met
and transfered to your hotel.
On arrival, check-in to your hotel.
Jaipur - The Capital of Rajasthan and one of the largest state of India. The city of victory, Jaipur presides over the fascinating
desert state and its people: surrounded by rugged hills, each crowned by a formidable fort; and beautiful palaces, mansions and
gardens dotted throughout its precincts. The palaces and forts of yesteryear that were witness to royal processions and
splendour are now living monuments, accepted quite naturally into the lifestyles of the people of the 'pink city'.
Later, proceed on a city tour of Jaipur, visiting the fabulous City Palace and Jantar Mantar.
The City Palace, which includes the Chandra Mahal and Mubarak Mahal palaces and other buildings, is a palace complex in
Jaipur. It was the seat of the Maharaja of Jaipur, the head of the Kachwaha Rajput clan. The Chandra Mahal palace now houses
a museum but the greatest part is that it is still a royal residence. It is a seven-storeyed building and each floor has been given
a specific name. Mubarak Mahal, meaning the Auspicious Palace, was built with a fusion of the Islamic, Rajput and European
architectural styles.
Visit Jantar Mantar or Astronomical Observatory. The Jantar Mantar is a collection of architectural astronomical instruments,
built by Sawai Jai Singh, as he was particularly interested in learning about astronomy. It has been inscribed on the World
Heritage List.
Later,return to the hotel.

Day02 Jaipur
After breakfast , drive outside Jaipur to the ancient capital of Amer to see the fabulous Amer Fort followed by a visit to Hawa
Mahal, Nahargarh Fort and Jaigarh Fort .
The Amer fort is also known as the Amber fort. The construction of Amber fort was started by Raja Mansingh in the 16th
century and was completed by Sawai Jai Singh in the 18th Century.The palace here has been wonderfully built and has an
intelligent design. The palace has a four storied layout and each level has its own courtyard. It consists of the Diwan-e-Aam, or
'Hall of Public Audience', the Diwan-e-Khas, or 'Hall of Private Audience', the Sheesh Mahal (mirror palace), or Jai Mandir, and
the Sukh Niwas where a cool climate is artificially created by winds that blow over a water cascade within the palace.
Thereafter, enjoy a photo- stop at the 'Palace of Winds', otherwise known as Hawa Mahal . It was named so because it was a
high screen wall built to allow royal ladies to observe everyday life in the street below without being seen. Constructed of red
and pink sandstone, the palace sits on the edge of the City Palace, and extends to the zenana, or women's chambers.
Hawa Mahal - the Palace of Winds with 953 small windows called jharokhas decorated with intricate web work. It is really an
elaborate facade behind which the ladies of the court used to watch the daily goings on in the street below.
The Fort at Nahargarh stands tall on the edges of the Aravalli hills that overlook the city of Jaipur. The view from the top of the
fort is splendid. Small buildings and colorful ones dot the landscape. On the other side there are fields. This fort along with the
Jaigarh fort and the Amer fort combined provided a great secure area for the city of Jaipur.
The Jaigarh fort literally means the fort of victory. The fort here, served more as a military fort than a residence of the Royals.
The Jaigarh fort in collaboration with the Amer fort was used to man the borders of the erstwhile kingdom of Amber. The fort has
thick walls built from red stone and spreads across three kilometres.
The rest of the day is at leisure for independent activities.

founded by Rao Jodha in 1459. There are seven gates, which one has to cross before reaching the fort. These gates still bear
the marks of the various battles fought in the past. On the wall, adjacent to the Lahapol or 'Iron Gate' are 15 handprints, the sati
marks of the widows of Maharaja Man Singh who threw themselves upon his funeral pyre in 1843.
To the left of the Mehrangarh Fort complex is the Jaswant Thada, built by Maharaja Sardar Singh in commemoration of his
father, Maharaja Jaswant Singh II in 1899. The Jaswant Thada is a white marble memorial, built out of intricately carved sheets
of marble. The sheets are extremely thin and polished so that they excrete a warm glow when illuminated by the sun.
