Jaipur

Here's a scene of life in Jaipur. As you can see, the buildings are perfect for gangs of bandit monkeys to make their way around in search of food to snatch.


Here's the Hawa Maheli as viewed from the street. All those windows are for women of the 1800s to look out upon the street without being seen. You can see from these photos why Jaipur is called the "pink city." It actually is more of a reddish clay color, but the pink comes out in the photos.



Here's a view inside the city palace of Jaipur. Just to the left of the center behind the pillars you can see one of the silver jugs that carried water from the Ganges in the story that I mentioned yesterday.
