  5. Hawa Mahal - The Palace of Breeze
    15m
    Jaipur’s most iconic structures. . It is an amazing sight of a sprawling red structure.. This was built in 1799 by the poet king Sawai Pratap Singh. The monument showcases an excellent blend of Hindu Rajput architecture with that of Islamic Mughal. The fluted pillars and floral design represent Hindu architectural traditions.
  6. Rana Saree Emporium

    This 150-year-old store is now being run by the sixth generation of the same family.

The fabric is mostly bandhej, which is a form of the famous tie-and-dye technique.

    Johari Bazaar, as I mentioned earlier, is a locality for jewellers. The shops here deal with jewellery made out of gold, silver, diamond and other precious and semi-precious stones.
