Plan a trip to Jaipur →The must-see places in Jaipur include Amber Fort, Hawa Mahal, Nahargarh Fort, Jaigarh Fort, City Palace and more. Here is the full list, with a short note on each:
This majestic and sprawling fort, blending Hindu and Mughal art, is a must-visit with its grand halls, beautiful gardens, and breathtaking views.
The famous Palace of Winds, with its unique 953-window facade, offers a glimpse into royal life and a spectacular view of the bustling streets.
Nahargarh Fort stands on the edge of the Aravalli Hills, overlooking the city of Jaipur in the Indian state of Rajasthan. Along with Amber Fort and Jaigarh Fort, Nahargarh once formed a strong defence ring for the city. The fort was originally named Sudershangarh, but it became known as Nahargarh, which means 'abode of tigers'. The popular belief is that Nahar here stands for Nahar Singh Bhomia, whose spirit haunted the place and obstructed construction of the fort. Nahar's spirit was pacified by building a temple in his memory within the fort, which thus became known by his name.
Jaigarh Fort is situated on the promontory called the Cheel ka Teela of the Aravalli range; it overlooks the Amer Fort and the Maota Lake, near Amer in Jaipur, Rajasthan, India.
This magnificent palace complex, with its courtyards, gardens, and museums, still serves as a royal residence and showcases rich collections of art and historical artifacts.
