Hawa Mahal "Palace of the Winds" was built in 1799 of red and pink sandstone in the form of the crown of Krishna, the Hindu god. Its unique exterior is akin to the honeycomb of the beehive with its 953 small windows. The original intention to allow royal ladies to observe everyday life in the street below without being seen. 首先參觀風之宮殿，建於西元1799年，為一座五層樓式的建築，乃捷普城主要的市標，昔日宮中皇后及嬪妃便在此處觀賞外面市集街況，以排遣寂寞。
Modern Jaipur was founded in 1727 by the ruler of Amber which lies 11 km from Jaipur. 隨即參觀琥珀堡，依山勢興建極為壯觀，曾為印度首都長達六世紀之久，抵達後搭乘吉普車上琥珀堡，參觀由鑲滿寶石之寢宮, 及鏡殿看出當年皇室生活之奢靡及虛虛瑪哈又名[萬鏡之宮]，叫人如置五里霧中，分不清何者為虛，何者為實，參觀完後搭乘吉普車輕鬆下琥珀堡。
The observatory, Jantar Mantar, is one of the World Heritage Sites. 午后參觀天文台、及城市皇宮，城內有博物館，館內展示蒙兀兒時期，王宮貴族的用具，其中以二個銀製水缸最為特別，接著安排前往貝拉廟，白色建築的廟宇，是由當地富商所建立的。傑瑪哈湖宮的萬千景緻，此宮殿為當初貴族因天氣燥熱所蓋在水中的城堡。隨後前往餐廳，在享用晚餐同時，一邊欣賞精心安排的拉賈斯坦省當地民族舞蹈表演。
