What travellers are saying
- centralvicBallarat, Australia262 contributionsEven a short visit is worthwhile, I think. Parking is the biggest hassle- our bus went before 8.30, so as to park nearby, as it's a regular street otherwise, so limited parking spots.
It's the beauty of the building that makes it worth seeing. Learn its history, and appreciate the viewing. It's stunning.Written 6 November 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

You pass through spacious courtyards and fanciful open air structures. The building has few areas to hide from the sun, do plan your visit for earlier in the day.Written 4 November 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- SharpEscape24 contributionsWe visited during a massive Hindu festival so we're thrilled to see some sights of joy and celebration that perhaps you might not off you don't visit at this time. It was spectacularly colorful and exciting. Walk through and up to the temple, everyone was bathing in the holy water. Some monkeys there too. Not sure I eat ok with seeing so many men running around in their under crackers. It's a bit messy but lots of India is. It's a long way out and it took a while due to three processions on the way there but worth it.Written 8 August 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- indiram815Puri, India16 contributionsThis Beautiful Mausoleum is located in the heart of the City, not a must visit place. But if one can manage it's a splendid place to spend half an hour. It's not too well known, hence a bit secluded so you get chances of a great picture !!Written 6 November 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- macedonboyGlasgow, UK1,79,496 contributionsSaw this way back in December when I visited the Amber fort.

- Milind KshirsagarNagpur, India191 contributionsWonderful example of Indian architecture. Best stone carvings and marble sculptures. It also houses Krishna idol worshipped by Saint Mirabai then. However the place should be kept free from doves. Smells a lot because of doves.Written 21 October 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Amit5 contributionsTravelling with friends, I went to see the Biggest Cannon of the world that has its Abode at the Jaigarh Fort of Jaipur.
The cannon has a barrel of 20.2 ft and weighs 50 tonne.
The cannon tears on a a two-wheeled vehicle and the wheels are about 5ft in diameter. Apart from this, the vehicle also has two removable additional wheels for transport, their diameter is about 9 feet.
The cannon has the capacity of being fed with 100 kg of gunpowder with 50 kg shell making it able to fire package load of 150kgs.
The cannon was fired only once, with 100 kilograms of gunpowder, and when fired was claimed to have covered a distance of about 35 kilometres. It is said that the projectile fired from it made a small lake in Chaksu.
As per the stories doing the rounds and being believed, the impact was so powerful that it actually lived to its words as Weapon of Mass destruction. The loud noise created by the blow made people deaf and pregnant women suffered miscarriages. Seeing this destruction of large scale it was never used again.
But being a lethal weapon with immense power it was kept in the fort as a backbone. And the Royal family still gets it maintained every year and prays before it once a year by performing the Swastik Pooja.
Must visit place as you explore Jaipur.
Stay connected as I bring more stories from the Pink city of Forts - Jaipur.

Little crowded from outside, parking is a little challenge, Mandir corner shop white pede prashad was lovely, Panditji was really very nice and humble, Hanuman Ji darshan was out of the world experience. One should sit and spend some 15 minutes in the Mandir courtyard in front of Hanuman ji to get actual feel and connect with Prabhu.

- JayanKottayam, India88 contributionsJAI HIND
The forty five degree weather could mot prevent me from an ever memorable vist to National war memorial (Amar jawan jyothy).
India gate complex mainly consists of India gate, National war memorial (Amar Jawan Jyothy) and Param Yodha Sthal. Param Yodha sthal is under renovation and we cannot enter there now. I think there is no need to explain the importance and history of these monuments here.
No entry fee is there to visit this complex. But, you are under surveillance of our Jawans. Evening is the best time to visit the place. It is a large hexagonal park. Facilities available to pay our tributes digitally to Vir Jawans. A Souvenir shop available near north gate ( on our way to exit) There you can purchase some valuable items related to our armed force. Neat toilet complex and Drinking water is available near to it. But, it is better to keep drinking water with you as covering the entire area will take some hours and general hot climate will make you tired.
Near the entry gate you can have some chtas, cut fruits, cut vegetables etc. Restaurants etc are not available near by.
You cab reach here from New delhi railway station by by metro by taking a single ticket p to Khan market. But you have to change from the yellow line metro to Violet line at central secretariat station. Khan market station is about 1.5 km away from India gate. Bus No. 894C also will lead you to India gate entry with cheap rate At exit gate lot of auto rickshaws are waiting for you. But I think there is no regulation on the retes.Written 21 May 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Located near Amer Fort on the outskirts of Jaipur City, Akbari Masjid built on the usual plan has arched screens and a deep mihrab on the western wall. In front of the Mosque, there is a courtyard entered through small gateways from three directions. The Mosque was built by the order of Mughal Emperor Akbar in 1569
The 16th-century Akbari Masjid (Mosque) is an important historical and architectural landmark in Jaipur and is known for its unique blend of Mughal and Rajputana styles of architecture.
The Akbari Masjid features a spacious courtyard and a prayer hall that can accommodate a large number of worshippers. The prayer hall is adorned with intricate carvings and delicate artwork, and the walls are decorated with verses from the Quran. The Mosque also has a beautiful marble dome and two minarets that are visible from a distance.
The Akbari Masjid is open to visitors of all faiths, and it is important to dress modestly and respect the customs and traditions of the Muslim community when visiting. If you are interested in learning more about the history and architecture of the Mosque, there are local guides available to provide tours and share informationWritten 10 April 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
