5 days in Jaipur Itinerary

Known as the "Pink City" because of the color of the stone used for many of its notable structures, Jaipur draws visitors with its chaotic street life and a slew of colorful bazaars selling everything from handmade pottery to tie-dye scarves.

Your inner history buff will appreciate Amber Palace and Jal Mahal. City Palace of Jaipur and Spas are good opportunities to explore the local culture. Spend the 16th (Wed) wandering through the wild on a nature and wildlife tour. And it doesn't end there: look and learn at Jantar Mantar - Jaipur, don't miss a visit to Hawa Mahal - Palace of Wind, take a stroll through Rusirani Village, and learn about all things military at Nahargarh Fort.
