Overview
Jaipur: The Pink City – A Timeless Journey into Royal Grandeur
Jaipur, famously known as the “Pink City,” is a mesmerizing blend of history, culture, and architectural marvels. The capital of Rajasthan, this vibrant city is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a gateway to India’s royal heritage. Its pink-hued buildings, bustling bazaars, and majestic palaces reflect a legacy of regal splendor, hospitality, and architectural ingenuity.
The Story Behind the Pink Facade
Jaipur earned its moniker in 1876 when Maharaja Sawai Ram Singh had the entire city painted pink to welcome the Prince of Wales (later King Edward VII). In Indian culture, pink symbolizes hospitality and warmth, and the tradition has been preserved, making Jaipur a city of enduring charm.
A City Designed with Vision
Founded in 1727 by Maharaja Sawai Jai Singh II, Jaipur is one of India’s earliest planned cities. It was built according to Vastu Shastra and Shilpa Shastra, ancient Indian architectural principles, with wide streets, symmetrical layouts, and nine sectors symbolizing the nine divisions of the universe. The city’s grid design is a marvel of urban planning, making it both aesthetically pleasing and functional.
