incorporated the first name of the Maharaja thus immortalizing
the builder both through his nomenclature of dynasty and
concept of ideals.
Jaipur was and remains the only city in the world symbolising
the nine divisions of the universe through nine rectangular
sectors dividing it. A young Bengali architect, Vidyadhar
