Retaining the legacy and the promise of tomorrow in Jaipur

(1)

What makes Jaipur a cut above the rest is the mere smell and feel of its old roots and former version. While it is now a striving economy and a developing city of Rajasthan, Jaipur clung to what it valued in the past and infuse it with the fruits of the future.

Once in Jaipur, you’d be able to identify that the city is still lingering on how glorious vintage architectures are by just looking at the streets and also be convinced that the locals are doing their very best to supply their hometown the efforts it deserved.

Take a leisurely stroll off Jaipur’s boastful towers and never miss the visual treat it extends whilst be ecstatic too with modernized malls and stalls of local goods.

It can be concluded that the people of Jaipur managed the two worlds more effectively than the others and the enthralling city that it is now being slowly cementing its name to be one of the most interesting places in the whole of Rajasthan’s Indian Region.

Location

Currently being inhabited by almost 7 million people, Jaipur is one of the largest city-states in Northern India. Jaipur is subdivided into six parts by wide-berthed streets 111 feet wide.

Known to be India’s Pink City, Jaipur is geographically surrounded by other Indian cities such as New Delhi, Mumbai, Jodhpur, Udaipur, Agra, Ahmedabad and Surat.

Climate

So much like the rest of India, Jaipur has a semiarid climate class as according to the Koppen Climate Classification. Being under the semiarid circle meant that hot weather is said to be experienced within the whole year.

Surprisingly, temperatures can shoot up as high as 38-degrees Celsius in June, which is also deemed to be the hottest month of all. When the monsoon winds enter the city, there are high expectations of thunderstorms and rain showers that can be as much as 231 millimeters of rainfall mark especially in August.

Coolest month can be tagged to January with the low-brow temperature of 18-degree Celsius as the most frigid.

Transportation

Traveling via any method of transportation won’t be much of a hassle when visiting Jaipur. Known to be the headquarters of the North Western Zone of Indian Railways, the Jaipur Railway Station can pretty much transport travelers and locals in nearby and equally huge cities such as Mumbai, Delhi, Hyderabad, Kolkata, Chenai, Alwar and Bengaluru.

And just recently, Jaipur opened the Jaipur Metro, which also connects the city into other places of interest in the whole of India. Bus lines are being supervised and operated by the Jaipur Bus Rapid Transit Service, a government backed outfit, to fix the tremendous traffic situation observed in the metropolis every day.

Bus depots and terminals are known to be at Vaishali Nagar, Vidyadhar Nagar and Sanganer.

Located 10 kilometers from the city center, the Jaipur International Airport is catering to humongous domestic and international flights and is always of service every day.

Some of the destinations that can be reached through air travel from and to Jaipur include Abu Dhabi, Dubai, Muscat and Sharjah.

What to See

Sisodia Rani Palace Garden

Located specifically in Agra Road, the Sisodia Rani Palace Garden is a well-meaning place of relaxation that you can go to when you need to release some metropolis-induced stress.

Adore the flow and humongous fountains serving as a centerpiece of the verdant and luscious surroundings and submerge yourself into utter peace and tranquility as you take the goodness of nature in every breath.

Birla Lakshmi Narayan Temple

Made by the very affluent Birla family, the Birla Lakshmi Narayan Temple is a sprawling mansion-dotted complex that will surely stand second to none. Get a look at how the family invested so much on this glorious architecture by paying it a visit whenever you’re in Jaipur.

Easily one of the most distinctive landmarks to ever have been erected in Jaipur, this supposedly token edifice is home to marbled-floors and splendid architectural designs.

Hawa Mahal

Constructed in 1799 by then-renowned architect Maharaja Sawai Pratap Singh, the Hawa Mahal is definitely one sight to behold.

A looming five-storey wonder of pink sandstone and delicately unscripted walls, this olden building is surely worthy of some snaps that you can brag about as a part of your Jaipur extravaganza.
