Jaipur offers a plethora of tourist attractions to the traveller.
The City Palace in the heart of Jaipur is known for its blend of
Rajasthani and Mughal architecture. Another monument near the City
Palace, Jantar Mantar, is the largest of the five observatories
built by Sawai Jai Singh. The Hawa Mahal or the Palace of Winds
was constructed for the royal ladies to watch the royal processions
without being seen. Amber Fort, situated just outside the city,
is perhaps the most beautiful example of Rajasthani forts and gives
a grand view of the city down below. Other attractions include the
Jaigarh Fort, Birla Mandir, and Sisodia Rani Ka Bagh.
