The Amber Fort in India is built with milky white, light yellow, rose red and pure white stones. It looks like amber from a distance, so it is called the Amber Fort. The architecture of the Amber Fort is complex but exquisite. It is built against the mountain and is very imposing. The famous Mirror Palace in the Amber Fort is an exquisite pattern inlaid with tiny lenses. The exquisite technique is amazing!
There are also many castles in India, which may be the traces left over from years as a British colony. There are red Amber Fort, castles built in water, and royal castles, all of which are valuable cultural relics.

City Palace in Udaipur is a magnificent attraction, showcasing Rajput and Mughal architecture. Overlooking Lake Pichola, this grand palace complex features stunning courtyards, balconies, and museums filled with royal artifacts. Well-maintained and rich in history, the palace offers insight into Rajasthan’s royal heritage. It’s a must-visit for history lovers and photographers alike. However, entry tickets can be pricey..
One of the most beautiful places in all of Udaipur. It was full of history and you will need 2 hours at least to admire the artifacts and architecture. There is also a nice viewpoint up there

I recently visited the Nahargarh Fort in Jaipur during my trip in April and it was an unforgettable experience. The fort is located on a hilltop and offers stunning views of the city. It has a rich history and the architecture is beautiful. I highly recommend a visit to Nahargarh Fort for anyone traveling to Jaipur.
Nahargarh Fort, also known as Tiger Fort, was built in 1734 and expanded in 1868. Tiger Fort stands on a hill in the north of the old city of Jaipur and is a great place to watch the sunset.

The castle can be seen almost everywhere in the city. It looks very close, but it is really far to go up. The higher the car goes, the closer we feel to the desert. The wind and sand are so strong that we can't open our eyes. The castle is almost submerged in the wind and sand. The driver agreed to wait for us for 3 hours and then send us back to the city for 400 rupees. In fact, he gave 500 rupees in the end because we got lost when we left the castle and wasted some time.
Here I want to remind everyone that you must bring your ID card to rent the Chinese audio guide, which is free. We didn't bring it, and the brother didn't give it to us at first. Maybe he saw my lost expression and sympathized with me and gave it to me reluctantly. Yeah yeah yeah
Mehrangarh Castle is really the most spectacular, dangerous, and breathtaking fortress in this trip to northern India. I am simply fascinated by the architecture of India.
Symbolizing strength, trust, courage and wisdom, the entire castle is built on a hill 100 meters high, and the base should be granite, which is extremely hard. Due to the relative altitude, it looks like a sky city falling to the surface from a distance. Walking on the road, there is a bit of the flavor of Pudala. However, the lonely mountain in China was built earlier. The military use of the castle is very obvious. The protective wall is more than 30 meters high, and there are seven gates from the entrance to the top of the mountain. It is an invincible defense in the era of cold weapons.

Jaipur at dusk
After a short rest
The guide started the afternoon tour of the Pink City
The first attraction we came into contact with
was Albert Hall
This museum houses many ancient artworks
Countless sculptures, texts and decorations
The details carved on wooden parts and beautiful pottery
As well as the artwork on the armory and decorations
are all breathtaking
The building is carefully designed and built
Standing in the ring
It is not lonely
The traffic is endless
The pigeons are flying
No sun is shining on the roof
The whole ivory building
is a combination of British and Indian art
It is so beautiful and elegant~
In the center of Jaipur, there is a magnificent, beautiful and exquisitely constructed ancient building that caught my eye. This is the Albert Hall Museum. Among the exhibits is a 3,000-year-old female mummy from ancient Egypt.

Among the palaces of Jaipur, City Palace stands apart, with its outstanding art and architecture. Suggest edits to improve what we show. Explore different ways to experience this place.
This palace is located in jaipur which is capital of Rajasthan and also known by nick name, Pink city. This is easily accessible and there are many hotels and lodges are to stay here. I have visited this city many times and saw many historical places like hawa mahal, Jalmahal, Amer ka kila, City palace etc.
City palace is very nice palace which includes Mubarak mahal and Chandra mahal. This palace is initially made by Sawai Jai Singh II who was the king of Amber and other by its next rulers.

You can see the unique Indian style in Jaipur. The castles and buildings here are antique and charming, which makes people linger and feel relaxed and happy. There are also tourists from all over the world, which is worth a visit.
The crystallization of ancient Indian wisdom - Jaipur Observatory, the observatory is dotted with 14 major astronomical observation instruments, including the world's largest sundial, each of which has a special purpose. The twelve triangular buildings in the courtyard represent the twelve constellations, and the angle and direction of each constellation are very accurate.

The Water Palace is also a site of an ancient Indian dynasty. The palace building is quite large and you can see many sculptures with Indian characteristics. The building itself is also quite interesting. It is a rare place to learn about Indian architectural culture.
[Location] It is recommended to stop and take a photo on the way back to the city from Amber Fort.
[Background] This was originally the summer palace of the royal family of Rajasthan. Because there are many birds on the back mountain, the princes and nobles used to come here to hunt birds. It is said that there are three layers under the water and two layers above the water. After the royal privileges were abolished, it was once used by rich people to hold parties, but now in order to protect cultural relics, such use is not allowed.
[Scenery] The reflection is very beautiful, with the background of mountains and waters, it feels like an oil painting. Occasionally, there are flying birds flying over the water or landing on the lake near the water.
[Surroundings] There are many small vendors by the lake, selling colorful snacks, or chasing you to ask if you want to take pictures, just refuse.
There is a platform in the middle of the lake, so you can avoid taking pictures of the fence; you can also pass through the barbed wire, but the line of sight is lower, and you should also pay attention to safety.
