We only had one day to explore Jaipur, the capital of Rajasthan, so we were sure to make it count! Visiting Jaipur is one of the most common travel destination in India and it really is for good reason! There are a lot of things to do in this city so we had to carefully choose what we wanted to fit into our one day in Jaipur.
Our first stop in this travel vlog is the famous Amber Fort (or Amer Fort), which we learned was a palace for previous Maharaja and is a beautiful place to spend a couple of hours. Not only is the architecture at Amber Fort stunning, but the accessibility to so much of the fort makes it a really fun place to explore.
The next place we visited in Jaipur was a famous photo spot called the Panna Meena ka Kund Stepwell, and man is it stunning! It’s so photogenic, even if the water colour is a little iffy :p
After a quick look at Jal Mahal (which makes for a nice quick pit stop), we visited the most anticipated tourist attraction of the day; Hawa Mahal! The incredible Wind Palace is everything we imagined it to be, although we didn’t anticipate just how loud it is! The street in front of Hawa Mahal is very busy, and when you add all the tourists and shop keepers into the mix, it can quickly become overwhelming. We loved seeing Hawa Mahal and could have stayed for hours taking various photos and videos; it really is an amazing structure and is Jaipur’s number 1 tourist attraction for good reason!
Last but not least, we toured around the City Palace to see how the modern day Royalty live. Surprisingly, this is actually the stop that we would suggest you skip if you’re short on time in Jaipur. Unless you pay extra for entry into special rooms, the palace itself doesn’t offer visitors as much to see or do as we expected. If you only have one day in Jaipur like we did, maybe skip a visit to the City Palace and check out another fort or explore the Rajasthani cuisine a bit more!
If you are headed to Jaipur soon and need an awesome tuktuk driver, we highly recommend reaching out to Dinesh to see if he’s available 🙂 He can be reached by What’sApp at +91-9314870222 or email at dineshdhap@yahoo.com
We hope this video helps you plan your visit to Jaipur, especially if you only have one day in the Pink City!

I love your videos so much. You are my inspiration. You deserve this, keep up the good job.
You brought back lots of memories for me. I went with a friend in 2019 and we were worried about the elephants too.
😎🙏🏻🇮🇳😍😍❤️❤️🥰🥰!
The colour of that building looks salmon to me, a blend of orange and pink.
I'm totally with you on the treatment to the elephants😔
Nicole takes the fame! Foods looking good traffic not!
Really good again thanks for sharing👌👍
On the visitors book you should write your concerns about the Indian Elephants' plight. This is absolutely cruel towards the elephants or any animals to say the least.
it's better than putting them in a cage/zoo. because they are properly taken care of, and a fun fact they even have elephant spas and most importantly freedom.
Jodhpur and jaipur is a part of rajput confederate state.
👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌
You don't know,
Everything is leela of God in India 😂🤣🤣🤣😂😜😂🤣🤣😂😜😜😜
Because 330 Million God in India 🤣😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Are you two visiting Himalayan parts if India , especially spiti Valley, dharamsala, manali, Leh , Kashmir ,etc. ??
🤍🙏🏻
please visit UDAIPUR , Best in rajasthan
Those are not discolored elephants. That is the natural pigmentation. It is sad and they should ban the practice NOW.
Yes, don't like animals used to take tourists up. It may be traditional thing but now it's not right. Better they start something like electric golf cart
Looking forward for Varanasi vlog!
Love your videos❤️
9:01 it is because before that time for hundreds of years India was under Islamic rule who came from Central Asia and they enforced women can't be seen in public. before that there was not any such rule.
this is the culture where there were temples dedicated to animals everywhere on ancient times. then foreign rulers came who had religions with one God that too up in the sky. they destroyed all the temples ancient temples, killed the people with those traditions and destroyed this culture a lot. still if you visit deep down south India you will see lots of temples dedicated of of animals even in Rajasthan there are lots of animal temples.
Please come on punjab
Going to Rajastan next week, and your vlog is so so helpful! Thank youu
