elephants is bound to enrich your memories with the royal lifestyle of the Maharajas of Rajasthan. En route to Amber Fort from your hotel, you will have a brief photography stop at Hawa Mahal - the Palace of Winds.

In the afternoon, we tour the city of Jaipur. We first visit the Maharaja's City Palace, the former royal residence part of which is converted into a museum. A small portion is still used by the royal family of Jaipur. One of the major attractions in the museum is the portion known as Armoury Museum housing an impressive array of weaponry-pistols, blunderbusses, flintlocks, swords, rifles and daggers.

Later visit the Jantar Mantar, which is the largest stone and marble crafted observatory in the world built by Jai Singh from 1728 to1734. We finish our city tour with a walk through the busy lanes of the city. Afterwards return to hotel for overnight stay.

The outer wall, built of light red sandstone is surrounded by a moat, and within are beautifully designed palaces with balconies, kiosks, fine jali or lattice work screens with richly decorated interiors. The Badal Mahal in the fort has walls covered with stories from the life of Krishna, whilst the walls of the oldest palace, the Lal Niwas, are elaborately decorated
