Out and About in Jaipur

You'll find it hard to decide which exotic sight to check out first. You can see Hawa Mahal, a pyramid-shaped monument that rises more than 50 feet above the ground, or visit Jantar Mantar, an observatory listed as an UNESCO World Heritage Site. Stretch out in the wide open spaces of either Sisodiya Rani Bagh or Kanak Vrindavan, two large parks in the area. If you're an animal lover, set aside time to visit the Jaipur Zoo. Many hotels in Jaipur are near ancient temples like Garh Ganesh Temple, Govind Dev Ji Temple, and Sri Kali Temple, so make sure you visit at least one. Jaipur flights arrive every day to get you started on your adventure.

Eating and Drinking
