Jaunt to Jaipur

First trip with my 6 month old daughter Vanya in 'Pink city' of Rajasthan and capital i.e. Jaipur. Memories reveled when we get down from the train & moving towards the Hotel. It was the know route which we use to roamed during college time. 
Old city of Jaipur was dressed in pink in 1863 to welcome Prince Albert, consort of Queen Victoria. Photos taken from the street. On the streets of Jaipur, not only you see cars, buses and auto rickshaws… camels too!
 
 As Indians are more devotee so we are steeping in the Jaipur we move towards the Birla mandir or Laxmi Narayan mandir which is situated near Moti Dungri Fort. It was completely made up of white marbles. The temple depict the scenes from Hindu Mythology like Samundra Manthan, Next to Mandir is the University of Rajasthan.
