Jaipur, a vibrant city founded by Maharaja Jai Singh II, emerged as a colourful capital due to the growing population's needs. Jai Singh, a visionary ruler and astronomer, strategically chose Jaipur's location for trade and defence. The city's Hindu town planning, divided into nine sectors, reflects cosmic divisions. Initially named "Jai Singh Pura," it became "Jaipur" to foster unity. Jai Singh invited artisans, fostering a thriving industry in gem cutting, jewellery, block printing, and miniatures. Amber Fort, a Rajput architectural marvel, and the City Palace, housing a unique museum, showcase Jaipur's regal history. The astronomical observatory, Hawa Mahal, and local crafts contribute to Jaipur's allure.
