Jaipur

We traveled from Pushkar to Jaipur, the capital of Rajasthan. It is a large city.

Immediately we noticed more Western tourists than we had seen elsewhere, which we expect to be repeated in Agra and Delhi.

There are fewer cows in the city but no less rubbish.

We set out to various scenic locations, plus a couple of typical sales pressure locations. One genuine highlight was dinner arranged with a local family.

The ladies might say that another highlight was the Bollywood movie followed by Bollywood dance classes!

Staying at another heritage property (old royal palace)

300 year old astrological instruments 

Sun dial accurate to 2 seconds

Locals constantly asking us for photos 

Sales (scam) pressure location #1 (textiles)

Salesvscam #2 (gem stones)

Step wells, no longer used for water supply 

Old area palace (17km walls to protect)

Elephant rides to the palace but Intrepid no longer supports this.

The young all want their photography done at the palace 

History and religious lessons from Yaddu

Winter palace

Glamourous Bollywood cinema 

More locals who thought Marie made at have been in the movie 😂

Typical traffic mayhem as we walked to dinner and dancing.

Always yummy food.

Sorry, we were too busy dancing to take any selfies 😁🎶🕺💃
