Every fort in Jaipur makes you feel like a Maharaja, and the city dresses in pink to make sure you notice.
Amber Fort, Hawa Mahal, City Palace, Jantar Mantar, Nahargarh sunset — Jaipur has more world-class heritage per square kilometer than almost anywhere in India. The food is extraordinary (pyaaz kachori, dal baati churma).
