Jaipur has imprinted itself on senses. Cool winter air contrasted with sunlit explorations, lovely weather for walks up hill forts and beautiful palaces. The rich texture of lassi served in a handmade claypot cup from a hole in the wall shop off MI Road. That first sip of sweet candy coffee in Jaigarth Fort after a morning hike. The simple perfection of a thaali with Naan, Aloo Gobi, Palaak Paneer, and Dal, topped off with Kheer and Kulfi. Dining under the stars like a rajput in Amber Fort, and trying local classics like Laal Maas, and the softest goat meat I've ever tasted.
So many things yet to see, and come back to -- a few of which are Blue Jodhpur, Brown Jaisalmer, and White Udaipur. I do feel like I missed out on some of the stories, and will need to do more readings. But alas, the list grows longer.
Let the photos tell stories...
