My home town

I was in my home town Jaipur for two days. The population is close to 36 lacs while in 1950 it was just 2 lacs. The city was founded in 1727 by Maharaja Jaisingh II and is now ranked 7th best place to visit in Asia ( according to trip advisor ) and first among the Indian destinations for the year. Nahargarh fort is the main tourist spot. Jaipur is the hub for handicrafts, textiles, hand knot rugs, carpets, gemstones and artistic jewellery. There are about 2900 restaurants the place is a “ Foodie Paradise “ the flagship dish of Rajasthani Cuisine is Dal Bati Churma with Gatta Curry. The range is exciting like Ghewar, Mawa ki Kachori, Pyaz ki Kachori, Kalakand, Mirchi Bada, Rasmalai , Kesar Rabri Kulfi. Many of the city avenues is painted pink. Calgary ( Canada ) is the twin city of Jaipur
