Top 5 Reasons to Visit Jaipur - Take Note!

There are many reasons to visit Jaipur while on a trip to India. Listed below are the top few reasons to do so.

1

Abhaneri Step Well

Being the capital city of Rajasthan, Jaipur has always been a vividly coloured space which does not receive much rainfall. During the old days, people had to come up with creative ways to save and retain whatever water that was sent down from above. The best solution to this rainwater issue was constructing a well with 3500 steps that went down to about 13 floors in height. This unusual design helps the people of Jaipur conserve the water while also keeping the water at the bottom of the well cold. This place is a must-visit as it is an amazing example of the construction of days gone by.

Jal Mahal

Jaipur is a place that is full of palaces and castles from the eras before us. There is this one palace that you must go to depending on when you visit Jaipur. The palace located within the Sagar Lake gets submerged when the lake is full of water. Any hotel in Jaipur India the likes of Alila Fort Bishangarh would be able to direct you to this place. You cannot reach this place by roads alone. You have to access the palace with a boat and you will be able to take a look at a few migratory birds while you are travelling in the water. The construction of this building was made with red sandstone and this makes for an amazing reflection in the water.
