Hey Guys…
U have chosen the perfect place to view vibrant colors of India.
Historically, places which would be a must see are given below:
AMBER FORT
JAIGARH FORT
NAHARGARH FORT
CITY PALACE
BIRLA TEMPLE
JAL MAHAL
HAWA MAHAL
Do make it a point to visit the Old Jaipur City (Pink City)Market,known as Badhi Chaupad & Chotti Chaupad. Apart from various types of ornaments, jewelleries, precious & semi – precious stones, fabrics, traditional Rajasthani wears, the most unique thing is the standardisation in terms of looks of the Market. The whole market is painted in Pink and the names of all shops are written in Black in a white block whether it’s an expensive jewellery shop or a sweets shop.
Please confirm whether the Market remains open on Sunday or not(As it is the Festive Season due to DIWALI, One of the biggest Festivals of India)and plan accordingly.
A MUST: Saturday night, u can plan ur dinner at a place called Chokhi Dhaani, which is modelled on a Rajasthani Village, and u’ll be able to savour excellent traditional Rajasthani food.
Hope u enjoy ur stay over there.
P.S – Do not forget to negoitiate prices to atleast by half as the prices are jacked up for tourists.
Otherwise the people are nice and warm.
And as far as the Desert Safaris are concerned, those would be available in Jaiselmer and Jodhpur as u’ll find sand dunes in this belt of Rajasthan, and I’m sure as Varun has rightly pointed out, Dune Surfing for sure would really be adrenaline pumping sport and the latest to hit the stalls in Rajasthan..
Hope the information is useful to u all and is helpful…
Have a Great Time!!!

Thanks Nitin,
Thats a brilliant gist of information and would sure be helpful, I can already forsee an eventful trip to Jaipur.
You seem to be from Jaipur, congrats on being from a colorful city in India.
Dune surfing would be a little too much for me but I sure can try a Camel ride (it would be less scary
)
