Rajasthani and Mughal architecture that also houses a museum and art

This morning there is an optional hot-air balloon ride if you’d like to enjoy a different perspective of the city, high up away from the hustle and bustle below. A full day of sightseeing includes visits to the ancient and imposing Amber Fort which sits on a hilltop overlooking the Maota Lake. Wander through the palatial grounds and see the Sheesh Mahal, a room embellished with thousands of mirror fragments that are said to be able to light up the entire room by reflecting the flame of a single candle. Visit the City Palace – an exquisite complex of Rajasthani and Mughal architecture that also houses a museum and art gallery. You’ll also get to visit the Royal Observatory and admire views of the Hawa Mahal (Palace of the Winds) which features a unique façade resembling the honeycomb of a beehive. Finally, experience the buzz of daily life with a rickshaw ride in a local market before returning to your hotel. Stay: Trident, Jaipur
