Jaipur,
popularly known as the Pink City, was
founded in 1727 AD by one of the greatest
rulers of the Kachhawaha clan, the
astronomer king Sawai Jai Singh. The pink
color was used at the time of making to
create an impression of red sandstone
buildings of Mughal cities - and repainted
in 1876, during the visit of the Prince of
Wales. The city is best explored on foot
and the adventurous visitor willing to go
into the inner lanes can discover a whole
new world not visible to the
tourist-in-a-hurry.
