Jaipur – The Pink City, is said to be the Pink City because of its appearance. It is a city which looks more like a landscape painted by the best painter in this world. Beautifully arranged architectures in the city make you feel as if you have entered into a dreamland.

Majority of the structures in Jaipur were built using large sand stones which brings in the similarity among them. Later on, in 1876, Raja Ram Singh got the complete city of Jaipur painted with a distinct terracotta pink (a colour of hospitality) to welcome the Prince of Wales and Queen Victoria. Today, Jaipur is divided into two parts, the old city – The Pink City, wherein the people are compelled by law, to maintain the colour, whereas the other part of Jaipur is not seen pink and represents a modern Jaipur. The Pink colour of the city makes it distinct from the rest of the cities in India. Jaipur plays a part of the Golden Triangle — Delhi, Jaipur and Agra — of tourist attractions in northern India.
