A girls trip to Jaipur from Delhi is the easiest trip to undertake as college students. With a direct train and readily available Uber and E-rick service, there was no transportation or accessibility problem. The people of Jaipur are warm, and welcomed this group of students with enthusiasm.
Itinerary
Day 1
As a group of 10 girls, we decided to catch the early morning Delhi-Ajmer Shatabdi to Jaipur. After arriving at 10:40 AM, we headed straight to our accommodation from the station. Heckled by the cab drivers, we decided to drag our luggage for the 500 m to the hotel.
Cozy rooms provide an authentic boutique hotel experience to the guests. It had a small restaurant for breakfast and snacks and a courteous staff. Very close to the station.

We rested for a bit and headed to Brot Co. for an italian lunch. The food was average but it was a highly recommended spot by jaipur locals.
Small cafe, several options for pasta and pizzas. The desserts and shakes are also worth trying

With a full stomach, we began our sightseeing. Our first stop was City Palace, Jaipur. Most of the monuments are situated within the pink city, the old bits of Jaipur built with red sandstone. The aura of the place is distinct from the rest of the city, reflective of its rich cultural history
With an interest in history, we chose to avail tourist guides in all places. The City Palace was grand to say the least, the pride of Rajput Royalties.
A historic and architectural marvel. I highly recommend hiring a guide who can explain the history for genuinely understanding the place. The packages are standardized so you don't have to worry about bargaining.

In the evening, we went to the Tattoo Cafe to witness the Hawa Mahal with the setting sun.
With 365 windows for 365 days of the year, the Hawa Mahal is a sight to behold. However, there is little use in going inside it. I recommend enjoying the view and the lighting from cafes situated right opposite to it.
An ancient Sun-dial, build by the founder of Jaipur. The second, functional one is in Delhi. Recommend taking a guide to understand the science of accurate time measurement using the position of the Sun.

The hot weather made us hungry and we headed to Tapri Central with a beautiful rooftop view. Tapri is definitely one of the iconic spots for breakfasts especially. The food was absolutely fabulous.
Bargain with the jeeps that take you to the top. Spend time in the Baolis and understand the architectural influences of the palace. Definitely take a guide.

For dinner and drinks, we went to the luxurious Bar Palladio located in the Rambagh Palace complex, one of the most premium hotels in the country.
Hot spot for great drinks and ambient night life. Pretty expensive so budget accordingly. The Rambagh Palace is beautiful, take the opportunity to go around this luxurious property.

Day 3
Our last day started at dawn, experining the sunrise from the top of Nahargarh fort. For breakfast, we had lassi from Lassiwala and the renowned pyaaz ki kachori from Rawat.
1.5 km uphill climb to the top of the fort. The main entrance is closed in the morning but the panoramic view of Jaipur and the sunrise are absolutely worth it.
No trip to Jaipur is complete without Pyaaz ki Kachori, Mirchi ka Pakoda and Ghewar from Rawat. While you're at it, enjoy some chai, kesar milk or lassi with it.

Our last tourist spot was the Albert Hall Museum. For lunch we went to Cafe Anokhi and even managed to fit in some Blue Pottery shopping before heading to the station for our evening train back to Delhi.
This museum extensively displays artworks, paintings, weapons, clothings, old texts from rajputs to mughals to the british era. A great place for history enthusiasts.
Blue pottery is a traditional craft from Jaipur, India. It's named after the cobalt blue dye used to color the pottery. Blue pottery is famous for its lamps, vases, tiles, and plates. We bought some cute earrings made using this craft.
