Short Getaway to Pink City 4 Days & 3 Nights

A Short Getaway to the Pink City is your chance to dive into Jaipur’s regal charm, vibrant markets, and architectural wonders—all in just a couple of days. Whether you’re escaping from Delhi or looking for a weekend retreat, Jaipur offers a perfect blend of history, culture, and color.

Founded in 1727 by Maharaja Sawai Jai Singh II, Jaipur is India’s first planned city, designed with Vastu Shastra principles. The city earned its nickname “Pink City” in 1876 when it was painted pink to welcome the Prince of Wales—a tradition that continues today.

A short getaway typically includes:

• Amber Fort – A majestic hilltop fort with elephant rides and panoramic views.
• Hawa Mahal – The iconic Palace of Winds with its honeycomb façade.
• City Palace – A royal residence with museums and courtyards.
• Jantar Mantar – An 18th-century astronomical observatory.
