Humayun Tomb – Yet another magnificent Mughal building, the tomb of the emperor Humayun was built by his wife in 1565-66. This finely proportioned structure in red sandstone and marble, set in a square enclosed garden, served later as a model for the Taj Mahal and many other Mughal tombs.

Taj Mahal – One of the eight wonders of the world – The Taj Mahal is often described as "the epitome of love" & "a monument of immeasurable beauty". Taj Mahal was built by Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan to enshrine the remains of his beloved empress Begum Mumtaz Mahal which manifested the immortal love between the two. The purity of the white marble, the exquisite ornamentation, precious gemstones used and its picturesque location, all make this monument gain a place amongst the most magnificent buildings of the world. You can stay on to view the monument changing its mood with the soft light of the setting sun. The Taj Mahal remains closed on Fridays.

Amber Fort - At a distance of around 11 kms from the city of Jaipur, on the Aravalli hills is located the famous Amber Fort. The fort is an ideal example of Rajput passion for grandeur and their patriotism. For visiting tourists, the Amber fort holds forth numerous attractions in form of palaces, temples and gardens. In fact reaching Amber Fort itself is a wonderful experience. Sitting on the back of an elephant, tourists feel like a king or queen of the Rajput clan. Walking up the fort is also an option.

City Palace – The palace, which was originally used for official purpose, today serves as a museum. The museum was established in the year 1959 by Sawai Man Singh II who wished to safeguard the cultural property he had acquired from his ancestors. The City Palace is a splendid blend of the Rajasthani and the Mughal style of architecture. The entire complex is divided into numerous courtyards, gardens and buildings. There are two main entrances from to the palace; the first one is from Jaleb Chowk and the other one from Tripolia Gate.

Hawa Mahal - The Hawa Mahal is counted amongst the most gorgeous and captivating piece of work by the Rajput rulers. The Rajputs were strictly traditional and did not wish their women folk to be seen in public. The Rajputs women were themselves immensely particular about their dignity and did not prefer to come out in open with the common public. However, this did not deter them from taking interest in the proceedings of the court. So, Hawa Mahal was a window to the outer world for the royal ladies and the Rajput ruler who ordered its construction in the year 1799 was Sawai Raja Pratap Singh. The Hawa Mahal is an elemental part of the City Palace complex of Jaipur, yet it stands away from it and commands its own identity from the passer-by.

Jantar Mantar - Jantar Mantar is the largest of the five observatories built by Sawai Raja Jai Singh. Jantar Mantar draws its name from Sanskrit terms 'yantra' and 'mantra'. The former term means instrument while the latter means formulae. Built between the period of 1728-34, the Jantar Mantar is based on the astronomical studies conducted by Sawai Jai Singh and his men around the world. This astronomical observatory is an excellent example of the marvelous precision, wherein each construction has a specific purpose to measure the position of stars, altitudes or azimuths, calculating eclipses. Some of them still work!
