Rajasthan Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in May)

'Mahal' view at Hawa Mahal

Totally in awe with the rear of Palace of Wind or #hawamahal. This 5 storey pink sandstone palace was constructed in 1799 by Maharaja Sawai Pratap Singh. Reason being: to allow the royal women a view of everyday life including festivals and celebrations through the windows, as they never appeared in public (without face covering: purdah) #theguidetoldus Trivia: How many windows are there? A: 953 windows (Jharokhas) in total 😂 but i was busy wondering it must have been a tiring task to wipe all the windows. hehe anyway, we really love thr building that we came again at night to have another shot. l. The cooling effect in the chambers, are through the breeze passing by the small windows and enhanced by the fountains provided at the centre of each of the chambers #tripblazers #mytripvlog

Jaipur India

Besides the Taj Mahal my second place in the list was Jaipur. You can see a lot of pictures from this place in the magazines, social media, etc. It is one of the most important places to visit in India when you travel there for the first time. I was always attracted to its beautiful architecture and special colour palette. Everywhere you the blush pink colour is there and I couldn’t love it more since this is one of my favourite colours 😍 We also had a tour guide, this way we could learn more about the city and discover some hidden places that makes Jaipur so interesting. My travel tip for this place is to make a morning walk in the city, before the tourist wake up so you can see how the people living there start their normal routine. The hotel Samode Haveli is offering an amazing morning walk that will make your trip more special 💓 #jaipur #india #indiatravel #scenicspotguide #unforgettableexperiences#awesomepic#historicculture#maydaytrip#urbanexplorer
