Jaipur-The Pink City

The city gets its nickname because of the color of stone that was used for many of the buildings within the city.  Jaipur is the capital of the Indian state of Rajasthan and was one of the first planned cities in India. Because of this, the streets of the city are laid out in a grid pattern.

some buildings appeared more orange, but there was a rule that the signs on the buildings could only be white with black text


this is the Hawa Mahal, the most famous building in The Pink City
