AMBER FORT PALACE - Amber is the classic
romantic Rajasthani fort palace. Its construction was
started by Man Singh I in 1592, and completed by his
descendent Jai Singh I. Its forbidding exterior belies
an inner paradise where a beautiful fusion of Mughal
and Hindu styles finds it's ultimate expression.

by the extensive parkotas (Walls), watch-towers and
gateways of Jaigarh. It is one of the few military
structures of medieval India preserved almost intact
containing palaces, gardens, open and covered
reservoirs, a grannary, an armoury, a well planned
cannon foundry, several temples, a tall tower and a
giant mounted cannon the Jai Ban the largest in the
Country.
LAXMI NARAYAN TEMPLE - Situated in the south of
Jaipur, Laxmi Narayan Temple is one of the many such
temples built by wealthy Birla family in India, thus it
is also known as Birla Mandir. The temple is a great
reminder of the secular traditions India has shown over
the centuries. The temple has been constructed in white
marble and has three domes, each portraying the
different approaches to religion. The temple is
situated at the foot of Moti Doongri Fort, converted as
a small palace by Ram Singh II for his wife Gayatri
Devi. Evening departure transfer to the railway station
