Hawa Mahal
The Palace of Winds was built in 1799 and is located on the main road of the commercial center of Jaipur. It was originally part of the city palace and extended to the harem where the concubines were, and is now a landmark building in Jaipur. The unique five-story building of the Palace of Winds is like a huge pink "wall", which is densely covered with 953 honeycomb-shaped windows, made of red sandstone hollows. At sunrise in the morning, the Palace of Winds is particularly spectacular in the golden light, and it has a unique charm under the bright moon at night. The original intention of this design is to allow the concubines to watch the street below without being seen by outsiders, because they must strictly abide by the masking regulations. This structure also allows the wind to blow in anywhere in the palace. Even if it encounters strong winds, as long as the windows are opened, the wind will blow through the front and rear windows without blowing the building down, hence the name "Palace of Winds". Although the Palace of Winds is famous, many tourists usually leave in a hurry just to look outside. In fact, there are many places worth seeing inside. The entrance to the Palace of Winds is at the back, and there is an inner courtyard there. The interior of the Palace of Winds is well-lit, well-ventilated, and cleverly designed. The cloisters here extend in all directions, but exits can be easily found through signs.Jaipur · 4.1km from downtown

The Amber Fort in India is built with milky white, light yellow, rose red and pure white stones. It looks like amber from a distance, so it is called the Amber Fort. The architecture of the Amber Fort is complex but exquisite. It is built against the mountain and is very imposing. The famous Mirror Palace in the Amber Fort is an exquisite pattern inlaid with tiny lenses. The exquisite technique is amazing!

I recently visited the Nahargarh Fort in Jaipur during my trip in April and it was an unforgettable experience. The fort is located on a hilltop and offers stunning views of the city. It has a rich history and the architecture is beautiful. I highly recommend a visit to Nahargarh Fort for anyone traveling to Jaipur.

The Water Palace is also a site of an ancient Indian dynasty. The palace building is quite large and you can see many sculptures with Indian characteristics. The building itself is also quite interesting. It is a rare place to learn about Indian architectural culture.

Not only can you learn about Hinduism, but also about an attraction of Indian architecture. The entire temple is constructed of white marble, giving a holy and sacred feeling. It is dedicated to Hindu gods. There are many details such as various statues and inscriptions on the walls, which are worth a careful visit.

The Amber Palace outside the ancient city area is free to climb. It is a typical European-style palace. The only difference between the "Great Wall" and ours is that the battlements are Muslim-style pointed arches. Climbing up the mountain, you can overlook the endless panorama of the ancient city, but unfortunately it is shrouded in a serious haze. There are few tourists here and it is unusually quiet. The Wind Palace and the ancient palace complex in the center of the ancient city are the most essential parts.
