Gardens In Jaipur

Lake Garden Amer Fort, JaipurOne might consider Jaipur, a city located near the Thar Desert, as barren but that is not the case. Jaipur, the Pink City, is not only famous for forts, temples and monuments but also for gardens which further enhance its value on the tourism map. Jaipur has plenty of gardens, both natural and artificial, and the government has taken ample measures to preserve it. When the Kachhwaha Rajput king, Maharaja Sawai Jai Singh II planned the city, he gave special importance to the gardens in the city. Most of the gardens were dedicated to the queens, as in the case of Sisodia Rani Ka Bagh which was constructed for his second wife. Other prominent gardens in the city are Kanak Vrindavan Valley and Vidyadhar Garden.

Sisodia Rani Ka Bagh, the largest garden in Jaipur, is known for its fountains, painted pavilions and trees. Located 6km away from the city, this beautiful garden was constructed in 1728 AD.
