  1. SRC Museum of Indology

    The ramshackle, dusty treasure-trove of the SRC Museum of Indology is an extraordinary private collection of folk-art objects – there’s everything from a manuscript written by Aurangzeb to a glass bed. The museum is signposted off J Nehru Marg, south of the Central Museum.

    Royal Gaitor

    The site of the royal cenotaphs, just beyond the city walls, is an appropriately restful place to visit. Surrounded by a straggling village, the monuments bear much beautiful, intricate carving. The marble cenotaph of Maharaja Jai Singh II is particularly impressive.

    Central Museum

    This museum is housed in the recently renovated, spectacularly florid Albert Hall, south of the old city, and displays a fine array of tribalware, decorative arts, costumes, drawings and musical instruments.

    MI Rd

    MI Road is great for restaurants and for general Jaipur hubbub. Time it for sunset when the buildings turn pink.
