we were going on a heritage walk inside the beautiful walled city of Jaipur, also known as the Pink City. Our meeting point was right there at the iconic New Gate. As we stepped inside, the vibrant hues of the buildings and the intricate designs of the architecture, history, and culture awaited us at every turn. They immediately transported us to a bygone era of royalty and grandeur. Join me as we embarked on a journey through the narrow lanes, bustling bazaars, and magnificent monuments that defined the essence of Jaipur.

As we stepped into history, our first stop was Golcha Cinema, a heritage landmark that had witnessed the evolution of
cinema in Jaipur over the years. From classic Bollywood movies to modern blockbusters, this cinema held a special place
in the hearts of locals. Golcha Cinema embodies the Art Deco style.
Next, we indulged in some authentic Sahu chai, a must-try for tea lovers. Sipping on steaming chai, we soaked in the
bustling atmosphere of the city and prepared for our journey ahead.
Moving on, we explored Film Colony, The Film Colony in Jaipur city showcases colonial planning, including circular
chowks (intersections). These intersections were typically designed to facilitate smooth traffic flow and enhance
aesthetics. They often feature a central island or monument, surrounded by a circular road. These details reflect the
urban planning principles of the colonial era, aimed at efficient transportation and creating visually appealing spaces.
As we wandered through Thatheron ki Gully, we admired the craftsmanship of local artisans and marveled at the
intricate metalwork that adorned the streets.
Nataniyon ka Rasta transported us back in time with its traditional architecture and vibrant culture, while a stop at
Pooranji Kachori treated our taste buds to the flavors of Rajasthan.
We then wandered through Maneharon ka Rasta, known for its exquisite jewelry shops, before reaching the Twin
Havelis, architectural gems that showcased the grandeur of Rajputana craftsmanship.
At Bajjon ki Chowk, we paused to take in the sights and sounds of the bustling market square before continuing our
journey to Pandit Shivdeen ka Rasta, where history whispered through the ancient walls.
A visit to Bhartiya Bakery offered us a sweet treat amidst our exploration, followed by a stroll down Ajabghar ka Rasta,
where every corner held a story waiting to be discovered.
Our final destination was the Maharaja School of Art, where creativity knew no bounds. Here, we immersed ourselves in
the rich artistic heritage of Jaipur, marveling at the masterpieces created by local artisans.
And with that, our heritage walk came to an end, but the memories we created along the way would stay with us forever.
Thanks for joining us on this unforgettable journey through the heart of Jaipur’s walled city.
