Jaipur is the capital of Rajasthan and the largest city in that state; The city was built by King Jai Singh (II) in 1727;King Jai Singh's capital was in Amer city, under pressure from both the population growth and the water crisis, he transferred his capital from Amer to Jaipur.

A Bengali architect named Vidyadhar Bhattacharya was the main engineer and designer of  Rajasthan's capital, Jaipur City. Under his supervision, Jaipur was made, maintaing of Vastu  and engineering art. Jaipur is named after King Jai Singh. Most of the buildings in the whole city are pink so this city is called as 'Pink City';

So, let's start with site seeing. The city palace was built by Maharaja Sowai Jai Singh (II) in 1727,
when he shifted the capital from Amer to Jaipur. There are a total of three entrance arcades in the palace, one is the Uday Pole near Jaleb Chak, the other is the Virendra Pole near the Jantar Mantar and the other is the Tripolia (Pole means the arcade);

If you enter through Uday pole, you will reach at Sabha Nivas, The general  people used to meet to the King at Sava Nivas (Dewani Khas); These halls are worth a visit; Pritam Niwas Chowk was also the synagogue of that time, and from there, there would be the Riddhi Siddhi Pole, the Siddhidata Temple, where ordinary people could come and worship in the temple. Also near Peacock Gate, Peacocks used to come here, where there is a Vishnu temple.

Chandra Mahal is the oldest palace in the City Palace. Take a look at this magnificent seven-storeyed palace, Sukh Niwas, Rang Mahal, Chitra Niwas, Sri Niwas and the crowned temple at the top. In fact, every part of the palace is really attractive; In the City Palace there is another meeting hall called Mubarak Hall, and a clock tower.

Jaipur's Hawa Mahal has become an icon here. Located on one end of the City Palace, this palace built of red and pink sandstone is actually the Queen's Palace; It is also called Shis Mahal; Maharaja Sowai Pratap Singh built this Hawa Mahal. The whole palace is five floors in total. It is also allowed to go upstairs; On the inside side of the Hawa Mahal there is history and the real world of the busy Gheenji Jaipur city is seen from the balconies of the palace.

Near the Hawa Mahal or the City Palace there is a Jantar Mantar, of course. The mantle of the beast is one of the unequal signs of modern astronomy. It was the discovery of Maharaja  Jai Singh himself. At that time, with this architecture, it was clear that the sunrise, sunset, tidal wave, taking the sun, taking the moon, the position of a planet, the position of a satellite or zodiac,

That is, in addition to astronomy, astrology could be worked from this architecture, counting every half second through the sun clock; And Maharaja Jai ​​Singh deserves the salute of the whole world as the inventor of this Jantar Mantar. In our country, there are five Jantar Mantars have been  built besides Jaipur, those are at  Delhi, Varanasi, Mathura and Ujjain.
