❤️Pink City - Jaipur
Successfully applied for World Heritage Site in 2019, including Govind Dev Temple, City Palace, Jantar Mantar Observatory and Hawa Mahal, all listed as World Cultural Heritage. It is divided into new and old cities. Entering Chawri Gate is the new city of Jaipur. The pink color is a "thank you" to the British colonial rulers.
🌟World Heritage Site Jantar Mantar Observatory
Almost all ancient civilizations pay attention to the guidance from the night universe, and India is no exception. It was also built by Jai Singh II, who was particularly fond of astronomy and mathematics. It has now been listed as a World Heritage Site, with a total of 19 astronomical instruments of various sizes and functions. The largest sundial is several stories high.
🌟Hawa Mahal
It is a symbol of Jaipur and even India. Many covers of Indian LP are Jaipur Hawa Mahal. The building is made of pink sandstone and was built in 1799. The five-story exterior has 953 windows. The original design was to allow concubines to watch the street below without being seen by outsiders, as they were required to strictly observe the veil at that time.
🎭It is said that the best place to view Hawa Mahal is the cafe opposite.
🌟Amber Fort
Built from milky white, light yellow, rose red and pure white stone, it looks like amber from afar, hence the name Amber Fort.
🌟City Palace
Located in the center of Jaipur Old City, it is one of the best-preserved ancient monuments in India. The buildings inside are beautiful and contain clothing, carpets, weapons, and artwork left by the royal family, witnessing India's long history.

🌟Nahargarh Fort
Also called Tiger Fort, it is located on a mountain in the north of Jaipur Old City, overlooking the entire city. Tiger Fort has strong military defenses and has repeatedly resisted invasions from outside.
🌟Water Palace
It is a summer palace built on water for the Jaipur monarch. It can only be reached by boat and is a summer retreat for the royal family. The palace itself is not open to the public, but from the lakeside, the palace appears to be floating on the water, and the night view is even more charming😻
