2025 Amer Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in June)

#MarchGoodPlaces2025 Jaipur, the Pink City of India, is a very charming city and a very popular tourist destination. There are many representative attractions alone. It would be too difficult to rush around and see them all in one day. The travel agency specially arranged for us to stay in Jaipur for two nights so that we could enjoy the tour in detail. 1. Amer Fort 🕰️Business hours: 0900-1700 💰Ticket price: 200 rupees for foreigners 💞Recommendation reason: Amber Fort, located on the hill, was once the old city of Jaipur. It is composed of many independent palaces, a mixture of Islamic and Hindu styles, and is quite magnificent. There are many walls in the building decorated with gems and mirrors. The most famous one is the "Mirror Palace". When the sunlight shines on the lenses and gems and causes reflections, the whole castle will sparkle! 2. Jal Mahal 🕰️Opening hours: all day 💰Ticket price: Free 💞Recommendation reason: The building isolated in the artificial lake was originally used as the king's hunting lodge. Later, the water level continued to rise, submerging the lower four floors of the hunting lodge, making it look as if it was floating on the lake. However, the Water Palace is currently in a semi-ruin state and requires a boat to reach it. We just took some photos on the other side, so it was free. 3. Hawa Mahal 🕰️Business hours: 0900-1630 💰Ticket price: 50 rupees for foreigners 💞Recommendation reason: Jaipur’s most representative attractions, and the beautiful check-in photos on Instagram of Internet celebrities! The exterior of the Palace of Winds looks like an exquisite honeycomb and is made up of 395 windows. The entire towering brick-red sandstone building stands on the side of the main road, with an exquisite, majestic and noble design. 4. City Palace 🕰️Opening hours: 0930-1700 💰Ticket price: 200 rupees for foreigners 💞Recommendation reason: One of the best-preserved ancient monuments in India, it is not only the residence of successive Jaipur princes, but the current Jaipur prince and his family still live in the Moon Palace. The palace architecture combines the Indian style of Rajasthan and the Islamic style of the Mughal Dynasty, which is gorgeous and noble. 5. Jantar Mantar 🕰️Business hours: 0900-1630 💰Ticket price: 100 rupees for foreigners 💞Reason for recommendation: India's oldest and largest ancient observatory, with the world's largest sundial and other observation instruments, shows the high wisdom of the ancient Indians. When visiting at noon, the bright sunlight makes the sundial scale more obvious, which really gives it a high-tech feel. #IndiaTravel#

Amer Fort or Amber Fort is a fort located in Amer, Rajasthan, India. Amer is a town with an area of 4 square kilometres (1.5 sq mi) located 11 kilometres (6.8 mi) from Jaipur, the capital of Rajasthan. Located high on a hill, it is the principal tourist attraction in Jaipur. Amer Fort is known for its artistic style elements. With its large ramparts and series of gates and cobbled paths, the fort overlooks Maota Lake, which is the main source of water for the Amer Palace.

The Sheesh Mahal (Urdu: شیش محل; "The Palace of Mirrors") is a palace located within the Shah Burj block in northern-western corner of Lahore Fort. It was constructed under the reign of Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan in 1631–32, with some additions later under Sikh Maharaja Ranjit Singh. The ornate white marble pavilion is inlaid with pietra dura and complex mirror-work of the finest quality. The hall was reserved for personal use by the imperial family and close aides. It is among the 21 monuments that were built by successive Mughal emperors inside Lahore Fort, and forms the "jewel in the Fort’s crown." As part of the larger Lahore Fort Complex, it has been inscribed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1981. #deliciousfood #awesomepic #couplestrip

#春夏好去处2024 Riding an elephant up the Amber Fort is one of the most impressive parts of this trip. The castle🏰 covers a large area. It takes 20 minutes to ride an elephant up the mountain. Unlike other castles, the Amber Fort is very tall and handsome. You can tell at a glance that it is a military fortress👍 This is a military-style palace castle. Although the exterior is a high wall made of loess, the inner hall still uses India's usual marble design, with very complex carvings repeatedly used, which is very delicate and highly crafted. This castle is not only for tourists, but also for many local tourists, including students who come to intern, which is very interesting❤️ #印度旅游 #骑象 #城堡打签

If you’re heading to #jaipur then you have to stop by the forts there! The Nahargargh, Jaigargh and Amber Fort are all nearby each other and should definitely be visited. (This post is about Jaigargh only, please look at the other posts for the other two forts). How to get there? You can book an ola or uber for each ride but it would be more convenient to rent out a cab for 8 hours for about 2000rs. Doing such, you have enough time to get to all three forts and take enough pictures.

The Amber Palace, also known as Amer Fort, is a stunning palace located just outside Jaipur, India. Built in the 16th century by Raja Man Singh I, the palace is a beautiful blend of Mughal and Rajput architecture, and it served as the royal residence of the Kachwaha rulers for generations. The palace features several courtyards, stunning gardens, and beautiful architecture, including the famous Sheesh Mahal, or Palace of Mirrors. A visit to the Amber Palace is a must for anyone interested in the history and culture of Rajasthan. The palace's intricate artwork and stunning views are truly unforgettable.#india #jaipur

#cityplaybook #familytrip #localguides #historicallandmarks #postandearn Jaipur, the capital of Rajasthan, is more than just a city—it's a living museum of Rajput grandeur, painted in shades of pink and gold. From its magnificent palaces and forts to the chaotic beauty of its bazaars, Jaipur offered me an unforgettable experience that felt like stepping into a royal fairy tale. My journey began at the Hawa Mahal, the iconic "Palace of Winds," with its honeycomb façade and windows designed for royal women to watch the street below. I arrived early to watch the morning light hit the sandstone structure—pure magic. Just a short walk away was the City Palace, a dazzling blend of Mughal and Rajasthani architecture. Each courtyard and gateway told a different story. The Amber Fort, perched on a hill overlooking Maota Lake, was the highlight of my trip. I took a jeep up to the fort and wandered through mirror-covered halls, royal gardens, and ancient courtyards. The Sheesh Mahal (Mirror Palace) glittered like starlight, even in daylight. Shopping in Johari Bazaar and Bapu Bazaar was an adventure of its own. I picked up handmade juttis, vibrant leheriya dupattas, and Rajasthani jewelry. Every turn smelled of street snacks and echoed with folk music. For food, I indulged in rich Rajasthani thalis—dal baati churma, gatte ki sabzi, and laal maas. I also enjoyed rooftop dining at cafés with views of Nahargarh Fort glowing in the distance. As the sun set, I visited the Jantar Mantar, a UNESCO World Heritage site with ancient astronomical instruments that still amaze with their precision. Jaipur’s blend of regal past and vibrant present left a lasting impression. It’s a place to experience colors, culture, and craftsmanship at every step. Best Time to Visit November to March – Pleasant weather and ideal for exploring the outdoors. Helpful Tips Wear comfortable shoes for fort visits—there’s a lot of walking. Bargaining is expected in the markets. Try to catch a puppet show or folk dance in the evening at a heritage hotel or cultural center.

Nestled high above the pink-hued city of Jaipur, Amber Palace (also known as Amer Fort) instantly transported me into a time of maharajas, opulence, and untold stories. As I climbed the cobbled paths leading to the grand gates of this sandstone-and-marble masterpiece, I was struck by its sheer magnificence—and the sense of history whispering through every carved arch and frescoed wall. What mattered most to me during my visit was how Amber Palace seamlessly balances grandeur with intimacy. The Sheesh Mahal (Mirror Palace) left me speechless; thousands of tiny mirrors glittering on the ceiling reflect even a flicker of candlelight, creating the illusion of a starry sky indoors. Standing there, I could imagine royal ceremonies from centuries past and the hush of awe that must have fallen over every guest. Exploring the courtyards, the Ganesh Pol, and the Diwan-e-Aam (Hall of Public Audience) felt like stepping through the pages of a vivid history book. The panoramic views of the Maota Lake and the surrounding Aravalli Hills are breathtaking—especially during golden hour, when the palace glows warmly in the sunset light. Best Time to Visit: October to March is ideal, as the weather is cool and pleasant. I visited in early December, and the crisp air made climbing around the fort much easier and more enjoyable. Bonus Tips: Arrive early (by 8 AM) to beat the crowds and heat. Hire a local guide—they’re a treasure trove of stories and can point out hidden details. The light and sound show in the evening is well worth staying for—it brings the palace’s past to life.

"Enjoy the world of magnificent palaces" This time, we will introduce Amber Fort, located near Jaipur, India. Built in the 16th century, this fort is a beautiful building with gorgeous decorations unique to the Rajasthan region. In particular, the Hall of Mirrors, with its walls covered in mirrors, was very fantastic. You can also climb up to the fort on an elephant! Please note that there are many vendors, so be careful. = ...

I went to Amber Fort in Jaipur. After entering the fort, you can see the interior by climbing the stone pavement. You have to take off your shoes before entering, so it's a good idea to have a plastic bag with you. There is a building called the Hall of Mirrors, which was so beautiful that I felt dizzy. You can get there by bus from the center of the city, but you can also take a motorbike taxi! I think it's a tough distance to walk. There aren't many people going there, but if you get caught by a vendor on your way back, you won't be able to relax for a year, so be careful. 📍Location: India 302001 Rajasthan, Jaipur, Amer, Debi Dinpura #0 yen travel #Overseas travel strategy #Asia travel

#aprilblooms #india #jaipur #palace #rajasthan Amber Fort is just about half an hour’s drive away from central Jaipur city. Today it is known as the UNESCO World Heritage Site. After a 10-minute hike along the fortress walls, you will arrive at the majestic courtyard of the palace to enjoy panoramic views of the area. You can also take an elephant or camel ride up the hill - but for that, you must arrive early in the morning.

#Introducing breathtaking views from overseas Recommended points of Amber Fort 1. The building is so beautiful! Amber Fort is the castle of an old king in India, and is a mix of Rajasthani and Mughal architecture, making it super stylish. In particular, the "Hall of Mirrors (Sheesh Mahal)" has small mirrors embedded all over the walls, and the light reflects off them, making it very fantastic! 2. You can ride an elephant to the castle (only if you wish) There is also a little attraction where you can ride an elephant up to the top of the castle. However, this is a bit of a problem in terms of animal welfare, so if you are concerned, you can also go by jeep or on foot. 3. The view is amazing! It's on a hill, so you can look down on the city of Jaipur and the lake, which is very pleasant. It's also perfect for taking photos! 4. The night illumination is also great If you time it right, the night illumination and sound & light show are also worth seeing. The castle is lit up with lights, creating a fantastical and romantic atmosphere. We recommend going early in the morning or in the evening.

I entered the Amber Fort in Jaipur, India. The Amber Fort looks grand and impressive from the outside, but the interior is gorgeous and beautiful, with marble walls decorated with jewels in some parts, and the geometric patterns are colorfully decorated in detail. The Hall of Mirrors is a famous attraction, so don't miss it! The main garden is also a sight to behold, and is enchanting. 📍Location: https://maps.app.goo.gl/W1Ju6RYyzBveJUuw9 The entrance fee is 500 rupees. #0yentravelFebruary2025#India#Jaipur

I came to Amber Fort in Jaipur. 20 minutes by taxi from the center of town. A large castle stands along the side of the hill, and I was amazed at its grandeur. It's hard to climb the slope, but the road to the castle is paved, and it feels like a time slip to the past. By the way, you can ride an elephant to the castle. Personally, I think it's better than the Taj Mahal! 📍Location: https://maps.app.goo.gl/W1Ju6RYyzBveJUuw9 #0yentripFebruary2025#India#Jaipur

| A Journey Through Time in India. Jaipur's Three Majestic Forts | A Journey Through Time in India🏰 Hey friends! Today, follow me as we journey to Jaipur, India, and uncover the mysteries of its three magnificent forts! These forts are interconnected, built on the same mountain range, forming a formidable defense network and bearing witness to the glorious history of the Jaipur Kingdom. 🌟 Amber Fort: Built in 1592, this masterpiece by the founding monarch of the Jaipur Kingdom served as both a royal residence and an administrative center. It beautifully blends Rajput and Mughal architectural styles, with red sandstone and white marble complementing each other. The fort's interior is exquisitely decorated, especially the Sheesh Mahal (Mirror Palace). With a million tiny mirrors imported from Belgium adorning its walls and ceilings, a single lamp can illuminate the entire room, making it sparkle like daylight. Thanks to its magnificent design and rich history, Amber Fort is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. 💪 Jaigarh Fort: Completed in 1726, Jaigarh Fort overlooks and is adjacent to Amber Fort, primarily serving as a military defense. With thick walls, secret passages, and cannon emplacements, it once housed 2,000 soldiers. Jaivan Cannon, the world's largest handcrafted wheeled cannon, resides here. It requires four elephants to move and, although never used in battle, symbolizes the kingdom's military might. The fort's intricate underground water storage and transportation system is another highlight, and it's currently under consideration for UNESCO World Heritage status. 🌄 Nahargarh Fort: Built in 1734, Nahargarh Fort initially served as a military fortress but later became a royal summer retreat and was also converted into residences for the emperor's nine queens. Each room is identical in size, design, and style, adorned with exquisite murals and sculptures, ensuring utmost privacy. Situated on a hilltop, it offers panoramic views of Jaipur city. However, hazy days can impact the viewing experience. When visiting these forts, sun protection is crucial! The Indian sun is intense, and prolonged exposure can easily lead to sunburn. Apply a high-SPF sunscreen, like SPF 50+ PA++++, 30 minutes before heading out. Reapply every 2–3 hours, especially after sweating or swimming. A wide-brimmed hat, sunglasses, and light, breathable sun-protective clothing are also recommended for comprehensive protection. Have a wonderful and safe time in Jaipur!
