The streets of Jaipur are usually clogged with traffic, but at least this impediment to movement is extremely colourful. However, don't walk too closely behind, the tailpipe can really eject pollution. Almost got peed on by a female elephant once in Delhi, luckily the copious stream went right over my head but hit a poor woman behind me.

La ciudad de Jaipur es la capital del estado de Rajasthán, y es conocida también como "La ciudad rosa". Tiene una población de unos 3 millones y medio de habitantes, y se encuentra a una altura de 432 metros sobre el nivel del mar. Es una de las ciudades con más historia de la India y una de las más visitadas.
Debido al trazado regular y ancho de sus calles se la considera una ciudad pre-moderna, y una de las mejor urbanizadas de aquella época en la India. Casi todas las ciudades del norte de la India de aquella época resultan caóticas, con calles estrechas y mal planificadas. El barrio más conocido, el que incluye el complejo del palacio Hawa Mahal o Palacio del los vientos, tiene jardines y un pequeño lago.

The city of Jaipur is the capital of the state of Rajasthan, and is also known as "The Pink City". It has a population of about 3 and a half million inhabitants, and is located at a height of 432 meters above sea level. It is one of the most historical cities in India and one of the most visited.
Due to the regular layout and width of its streets it is considered a pre-modern city, and one of the best urbanized of that time in India. Almost all the cities of North India of that time are chaotic, with narrow and poorly planned streets. The best known neighborhood, which includes the complex of Hawa Mahal Palace or Palace of the Winds, has gardens and a small lake.

I guess early mornings are not for everyone :)
Made this picture this morning on my maiden Jaipur Metro ride.
I wonder if the administrative block of Manipal University at Jaipur is a model to study for their School of Architecture and Design students.

The palace is a five-storey pyramidal shaped monument that rises 50 feet (15 m) from its high base. The top three floors of the structure have a dimension of one room width while the first and second floors have patios in front of them. The front elevation, as seen from the street, is like a honeycomb web of a beehive, built with small portholes. Each porthole has miniature windows and carved sandstone grills, finials and domes. It gives the appearance of a mass of semi-octagonal bays, giving the monument its unique façade. The inner face on the back side of the building consists of need-based chambers built with pillars and corridors with minimal ornamentation, and reach up to the top floor. The interior of the Mahal has been described as "having rooms of different coloured marbles, relieved by inlaid panels or gilding; while fountains adorn the centre of the courtyard". Chand Ustad was the architect of this unique structure. Built in red and pink coloured sand stone, in keeping with the décor of the other monuments in the city, its colour is a full testimony to the epithet of "Pink City" given to Jaipur. Its façade depicting 953 niches with intricately carved jharokhas (some are made of wood) is a stark contrast to the plain looking rear side of the structure. Its cultural and architectural heritage is a true reflection of a fusion of Hindu Rajput architecture and the Islamic Mughal architecture; the Rajput style is seen in the form of domed canopies, fluted pillars, lotus and floral patterns, and the Islamic style as evident in its stone inlay filigree work and arches (as distinguished from its similarity with the Panch Mahal - the palace of winds - at Fatehpur Sikri).
