Rainy season is probably the most awaited as the weather becomes cool but not cold. The drizzling rain-drops make the surroundings romantic giving you the optimum climate to have some fun. Jaipur is always beautiful but it takes a new form in monsoon. The holy Saawan month falls during the season and the whole city gets colorful. Plan a trip to Jaipur right now as we are giving you the most compelling reasons-
1.Trekking to the Hills
Pink city turns into green city during monsoons. All the hills get covered in green coat of plants. This is the best season to walk up and down these hills. Trekking around Samode, Amer, Galtaji and many more locations is a cathartic experience when there is so much beauty to lay your eyes upon. Even if you are not much of a walker, you can go for small strolls to freshen up in the cool breeze.
Besides roaming around in the greenery, you can admire the beauty of palatial monuments like Amber fort, Nahargarh fort and Jaigarh fort. After a tiring trek, simply rent a Segway scooter and drive throughout these grand structures for a brush with history.
2.Night Tourism
The historical buildings of Jaipur look even more intriguing during night. Driving on the streets of the city during night is an amazing experience all thanks to beautifully lit structures like Hawa Mahal, Albert Hall, Jal Mahal and the forts. Don’t miss the grand Sound and Light Show at Abmer Fort.
3.Shop for Leheriya
Leheriya is a colorful print from Rajasthan that is available only during monsoon. You shouldn’t miss the opportunity of taking home this colorful fabric. Leheriya print is available on sarees, scarves, jackets, tops, skirts and even pants. Whatever your style, leheriya has got what you want.
4.Witness Teej Festival
The biggest perk of coming to Jaipur during monsoon is getting to enjoy the Teej festival. You can witness the grand procession that is taken out in the old city. The magnificent procession of Goddess Parvati has elephants, chariots and folk dancers. People from all around the world come to Jaipur to be a part of this wonderful fest and you should too. Teej is falling on 26th July this year so plan now if you haven’t already.
5.Savour Traditional Ghevar
This is one more thing which you will get only during the Saawan month. Ghevar is a sweet soaked in sugar syrup. It is topped with cream for extra flavor. You cannot miss this indulgence for anything.
All these monsoon things are best enjoyed with a stay at Devraj Niwas. Simply because it is close to the hills, monuments, markets, location of Teej festival and the places that make the best ghevar. It’s the right time to be in Jaipur and now you know the perfect place to stay as well.
