Other Visiting Places in Jaipur
Amer Fort (Jaipur)
The first thing that speaks about Jaipur history is Amber fort. The principal tourist attraction,
Amber fort, is situated 11 kilometres away from the centre of the pink city. Amber is a small town
with four square kilometres area under Jaipur. It was the ancient citadel of the ruling Kachhawa clan
of Amber, before the capital was shifted in the plains to present day Jaipur. if there is any place
demonstrating the beauty and junction of both Hindu and Mughal customs and architect; it has to
be Amber fort. Constructed by Raja Man Singh I in 1952 and completed by Sawai Jai Singh I the
fort is built in red sandstone and white marble.
Jaigarh Fort (Jaipur)
Jaigarh Fort is situated on the promontory called the Cheel ka Teela (Hill of Eagles) of the Aravalli range; it
overlooks the Amber Fort and the Maota Lake, near Amber in Jaipur, Rajasthan, India. The fort was built
by Jai Singh II in 1726 to protect the Amber Fort and its palace complex and was named after him.

10. RSP Hotels & Resorts – RURAL TOURISM Page 10
The fort, rugged and similar in structural design to the Amber Fort, is also known as Victory Fort. It has a
length of 3 kilometres (1.9 mi) along the north–south direction and a width of 1 kilometre (0.62 mi). The
fort features a cannon named "Jaivana", which was manufactured in the fort precincts and was then the
world's largest cannon on wheels. The palace complex (Laxmi Vilas, Lalit Mandir, Vilas Mandir and Aram
Mandir) located ), an armoury and a museum. Jaigarh Fort and Amber Fort are connected by subterranean
passages and considered as one complex.
Nahargarh Fort (Jaipur)
Nahargarh Fort stands on the edge of the Aravalli Hills, overlooking the pink city of Jaipur in
the Indian state of Rajasthan. The view of the city from the fort is impressive.
Along with Amer Fort and Jaigarh Fort, Nahargarh once formed a strong defence ring for the city. The fort
was originally named Sudarshangarh, 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.
Built mainly in 1734 by Maharaja Sawai Jai Singh II, the founder of Jaipur, the fort was constructed as a
place of retreat on the summit of the ridge above the city. Walls extended over the surrounding hills,
forming fortifications that connected this fort to Jaigarh, the fort above the old capital of Amber. Though
the fort never came under attack during the course of its history, it did see some historical events, notably
the treaties with the Maratha forces who warred with Jaipur in the 18th century.During the Indian Mutiny of

11. RSP Hotels & Resorts – RURAL TOURISM Page 11
1857, the Europeans of the region, including the British Resident's wife, were moved to Nahargarh fort by
the king of Jaipur, Sawai Ram Singh, for their protection.
Jal Mahal (Jaipur)
Jal Mahal (meaning "Water Palace") is a palace located in the middle of the Man Sagar Lake in Jaipur city,
the capital of the state of Rajasthan, India. The palace and the lake around it were renovated and enlarged
in the 18th century by Maharaja Jai Singh II of Amber. "The Jal Mahal palace has got an eye-popping
makeover. Traditional boat-makers from Vrindavan have crafted the Rajput style wooden boats. A gentle
splashing of oars on the clear lake waters takes you to Jal Mahal. You move past decorated hallways and
chambers on the first floor to climb all the way up to the fragrant Chameli Bagh. Across the lake, you can
view the hills, dotted with temples and ancient forts, and on the other side, bustling Jaipur. The most
remarkable change is in the lake itself. The drains were diverted, two million tonnes of toxic silt were
dredged from the bottom, increasing its depth by over a metre, a water treatment system was developed,
local vegetation and fish reintroduced, the surrounding wetlands regenerated and five nesting islands created
to attract migratory birds.

Badi Chaupar Market (Jaipur)
Badi Chaupar (literally "Large Square"), also known as Manak Chowk, is a public square in Jaipur, India. It
is one of the two major squares constructed by the King of Amer. The Badi Chaupar metro station is
located in this area.
Chhoti Chaupar ("small square"), also known as Amber Chowk, is another major square located nearby.
Tripolia Bazar, the central bazaar (market) of Jaipur, is located between these two squares. The Badi
Chaupar area is a hub of artisans, jewelers and craftsmen.

Hawa Mahal (Jaipur)
Hawa Mahal was built in 1799 by Maharaja Sawai Pratap Singh. It was designed by Lal Chand Ustad in the
form of the crown of Krishna, the Hindu god. Its unique five-storey exterior is akin to the honeycomb of a
beehive with its 953 small windows called jharokhas decorated with intricate latticework. The original
intention of the lattice was to allow royal ladies to observe everyday life in the street below without being
seen, since they had to obey strict "purdah" (face cover). The lattice also allows cool air from the Venturi
effect (doctor breeze) through the intricate pattern, air conditioning the whole area during the high
temperatures in summers.
In 2006, restoration and renovation works on the Mahal were undertaken, after a gap of 50 years, to give a
face lift to the monument at an estimated cost of Rs 4568 million.[4] The corporate sector lent a hand to
preserve the historical monuments of Jaipur and the Unit Trust of India has adopted Hawa Mahal to
maintain it. The palace is an extended part of a huge complex. The stone-carved screens, small casements
and arched roofs are some of the features of this popular tourist spot. The monument also has delicately
modelled hanging cornices. Just like the other monuments of Jaipur, the palace is also constructed in pink
and red colored stone.

City Palace (Jaipur)
The palace complex lies in the heart of Jaipur city, to the northeast of the very centre, located at 26.9255°N
75.8236°E. The site for the palace was located on the site of a royal hunting lodge on a plain land encircled
by a rocky hill range, five miles south of Amber (city). The history of the city palace is closely linked with
the history of Jaipur city and its rulers, starting with Maharaja Sawai Jai Singh II who ruled from 1699-1744.
He is credited with initiating construction of the city complex by building the outer wall of the complex
spreading over many acres. Initially, he ruled from his capital at Amber, which lies at a distance of 11
kilometres (6.8 mi) from Jaipur. He shifted his capital from Amber to Jaipur in 1727 because of an increase
in population and increasing water shortage. He planned Jaipur city in six blocks separated by broad
avenues, on the classical basis of principals of Vastushastra and other similar classical treatise under the
architectural guidance of Vidyadar Bhattacharya, a Bengali architect from Naihati of present dayWest
Bengal who was initially an accounts-clerk in the Amber treasury and later promoted to the office of Chief
Architect by the King.
Jantar Mantar (Jaipur)
The Jantar Mantar monument of Jaipur, Rajasthan is a collection of nineteen architectural astronomical
instruments, built by the Rajput king Sawai Jai Singh, and completed in 1738 CE. It features the world's
largest stone sundial, and is a UNESCO World Heritage site.
Located near City Palace and Hawa Mahal of Jaipur, the monument features masonry, stone and brass
instruments that were built using astronomy and instrument design principles of ancient Hindu Sanskrit
texts. The instruments allow the observation of astronomical positions with the naked eye. The monument
expresses architectural innovations, as well as the coming together of ideas from

15. RSP Hotels & Resorts – RURAL TOURISM Page 15
different religious and social beliefs in 18th century India. The observatory is an example of the Ptolemaic
positional astronomy which was shared by many civilizations.
The monument features instruments operating in each of the three main classical celestial coordinate
systems: the horizon-zenith local system, the equatorial system and the ecliptic system. The Kapala
Yantraprakara is one that works in two systems and allows transformation of the coordinates directly from
one system to the other.
The monument was damaged in the 19th century. Early restoration work was undertaken under the
supervision of Major Arthur Garrett, a keen amateur astronomer, during his appointment as Assistant State
Engineer for the Jaipur District.
