Settled in
the rugged hills of the Aravallis, Jaipur is the pristine jewel in the desert
sands of Rajasthan. Jaipur is as remarkable for its marvellous architecture
and town planning as it is for the lively spirit of the people who inhabit it.
The city presents a unique synthesis of culture that has to be experienced in
order to be appreciated. With its origin buried deep into the pages of history,
the city still exudes a magical old world charm; an aroma of chivalry and romance
is evident, despit having evolved into a city that is the hub of modern commercial
activity in the region. Tell-tale signs of the glorious past and regal splendour
of the city lie strewn across with gay abandon. more....
