Rajasthan Part III

On the 26th of January, I and my group had our third full day out in Jaipur.

Our first stop was the Maharaja Museum, while we were there we took a look at the artifacts and leaned about the Maharaja and the royal family.

(Fun Fact: When the flags are raised, it means the Maharaja is in the city.)

After that, we had a look round the sundials

In the late afternoon after lunch, we made our way to a nearby balcony and did some sketching in front of the Wind Palace.

Jaipur by night tour

Around 6 PM four jeeps come round to the hotel to pick us up and take on a nighttime tour of Jaipur, the journey lasted for about 4 hours (including stops at certain landmarks)

Everyone (including me) had a good time on this tour and was even one of my favourite activities from this trip :).
