History of Jaipur

Founded in 1727 by Maharaja Sawai Jai Singh II, Jaipur stands as one of India’s earliest planned cities, designed with precision using Vastu principles and a grid-based layout.

In 1876, the city was painted pink to welcome Prince Albert, giving rise to its iconic identity as the Pink City — a color symbolizing warmth and hospitality that continues to define Jaipur today.

Jaipur has long been a center of royal heritage, serving as the capital of the Kachwaha Rajputs. Its forts, palaces, and observatories reflect a unique blend of Rajput, Mughal, and European influences.

Among its greatest treasures is Jantar Mantar Jaipur, a UNESCO World Heritage site featuring remarkable astronomical instruments that showcase the scientific brilliance of its founder.
