Jaipur, the Pink City and the capital of Rajasthan was founded by Maharaja Jai Singh II (1693 – 1743). This culturally rich city is surrounded by hills, dotted with forts and is the most convenient entry point to Rajasthan, India’s most colorful and vibrant State. It is also one of the links to the Golden Triangle of North India along with Delhi and Agra.
An extremely well planned city, Jaipur was designed by an engineer and scholar Vidyadhar Bhattacharya, in accordance with ancient Hindu treatise on architecture, the Shilpa Shastu (Vastu). The whole city was painted pink by Maharaja Man Singh II when Prince of Wales, later Edward VII visited Jaipur in 1876. Today every home within the city is obliged by law to maintain this façade. Homes with pink-latticed windows line the streets and look almost magical at sunset.
The Old City is a wonderful place to wander around and one gets enveloped and overwhelmed by tradition and a sense of pride, which Jaipur embodies and which is the essence of the State.
Park Plaza Jaipur lends itself beautifully to Jaipur and has an ideal city center location with easy access to business and shopping. M.I. Road, Birla Auditorium and the Secretariat are easily accessible.
