Jaipur--The Pink City--A Few Photos from our Recent Trip


Hawa Mahal, Palace of the Winds, where the harem could observe parades without being seen.The windows remind me of the mirror-worked bedcovers one sees all over India

The public library--love the green shutters, which reminded me somewhat of Tuscany


One of the seven gates that lead in and out of the city...very beautiful, but unfortunately can cause traffic jams


It's always surprising to come upon so many animals all over town, elephants, cows, pigs, goats, and monkeys all roam freely and happily everywhere

Rose petals in a pretty marble lotus-shaped bowl

Another of Jaipur's pretty gates
