    Jaipur - die rosarote Stadt

    30 photos

    Am Morgen verlassen wir Delhi und damit erst einmal das Großstadtgewühl - um am Mittag in Jaipur anzukommen. Der Hauptstadt von Rajasthan, die für unsere europäischen Verhältnisse mit ihren 3 Millionen Einwohnern eigentlich auch eine Megacity ist - hier hat eine Stadt dieser Größenordnung dann doch eher dörflichen Charakter.

    Elephant Ride

    Quite a packed day today.

    9am start, surprisingly our english speaking tour guide spoke really good english!

    We headed to Amber Fort. Paid for an Elephant Ride to take us from the entrance to the entrance of the fort. Elephants had their trunks and head painted. The ride up was a bit bumpy and bouncy - thought I was going to fall …

    Dec 29 – Jaipur

    After stopping at the hospital to have my finger checked and re-dressed we headed to Jaipur. The road was 'good' which means it didn’t have a lot of pot holes etc. but it was still rough going dodging around construction and just navigating the weird, crazy traffic. Supposedly, Indians drive on the left side of …

    Tonnara is an Italian term for a fishing tecnique used in Sicily until a few decades ago. Tunafish would be captured by channelling them through a tunnel built inside the fishing ships and slaughtered using spikes and sticks.

    This is somehow how it feels like here, but once you get past the madness it's quite a beautiful place.

    Jaipur - Pink City

    40 photos

    We arrived in Jaipur via Mumbai in the evening after our first internal flight given the considerable distance by train. I thought I had lost my shoe which had been lodged in the side pocket of my backpack but was thrilled to then find it on the conveyor belt and interpreted this as an auspicious start to our stay in Jaipur, city of the Rajputs! …
