Jaipur is a must on any itinerary to Rajasthan. Like pretty much everywhere we've been in India, this city is bursting with colors to photograph. Jaipur is called the "pink city" due to the majority of the buildings being painted a pinkish color.
Our first stop was the city palace in the center of town. This complex takes up several square kilometers full of beautiful arched doorways and beautiful carved details.
Next to the palace was a unique observatory to visit called the Jantar Mantar. This observatory is a garden type set up filled with various devices built out of concrete and stone dating back to the 1700s.
Including one of the largest sundials standing at 90 feet tall. We loved the architectural feeling of these structures, making for great black and white images.

In 2008 we (Meggan and Beau) set out to see the world and start a business. Since then we have visited 48 countries and we’re just getting started. Travel and design go hand in hand. Whether we’re on the other side of the planet, or down the street we always find things to inspire us.







Hey Meggan and Beau! I just caught up on your travels, and now that I’m back in the states, I’m even more jealous than I was while we were in China. It’s also great to see your photos from a few places that we have actually been, and I swear we saw some of the same men in Varanasi.
Enjoy December in India!!!
The pictures are really very nice & thanks for sharing such type of very unique pictures & please keep sharing these type of pictures.
