With its stark colours and rich folk tradition, Rajasthan is India’s most popular tourist destination. No wonder – the region is host to a diverse and exciting set of cultural fairs, festivals and rituals. It’s also home to some of the country’s most scenic and historic monuments, as well as a potpourri of vibrant and welcoming cities. Jaipur is Rajasthan’s capital, and inside its walled historic district, you’ll find the reason why it’s called the 'pink city'. Fascinating palaces, bountiful bazaars, the city teems with life.
