Jaipur places to visit in 2 days

1. Hawa Mahal

Hawa Mahal, the most renowned among Jaipur tourist places in 2 days, is not to be missed by anyone driving from Jaipur Railway Station or Airport to a hotel. This popular view as seen on this page online is, however, actually the back side of this historic landmark. Also within the complex, built in 1799 by Sawai Pratap Singh as a home for the women of his household, is the original palace wall. If you’re looking to actually experience one of Jaipur’s palaces, my suggestion is to buy an entry ticket and roam around this complex, where it’ll be your first stop in the city.

2. Jantar Mantar

One of the most remarkable tourist destination to see at Jantar Mantar, Jaipur in 48 hours. Built in the early 18th century by Maharaja Sawai Jai Singh II, this open-air astronomical observatory was essential for ancient civilizations to keep time and track celestial events. It is a UNESCO World Heritage Site with 19 instruments, each built for a distinctive purpose. The most famous of them is the Samray Yantra – the largest sundial in India. Other Yantras of importance are Chakra Yantra, Dakshin Bhitti Yantra, Digamsha Yantra, Disha Yantra, Dhruva Darshak Pattika, and Jai Prakash Yantra.

3. Amer Fort

Set on a low hill, Amer Fort has an impressive compound made of pale yellow and pink sandstone and white marble. Each level has its own delightful courtyard over the 4 tiers. You enter the fort via Suraj Pol or Chand Pol, and the main courtyard, called Jaleb Chowk, is straight ahead. Amer Fort is one of those famous landmarks of Rajasthan that mesmerizes its guests with many wonders like Diwan-i-Aam, Diwan-i-Khaas, Sheesh Mahal, Jai Mandir, Kesar Kyari garden, and many more captivating attractions.

4. City Palace of Jaipur

The City Palace of Jaipur is one of the best places to visit in 2 days, and the entrance fee is between Rs 200– Rs 3000. Visitors can explore the museums and courtyards for a lower price; for a higher ticket price, they can get the guided tour and go inside the Chandra Mahal Palace, a seven-story building that contains the original rooms of the Maharaja. The entry fees can be steep (some may think) but that will be expected as the palace is still privately owned by the royal family. Still, it’s well worth a visit to this stunningly maintained complex.

5. Albert Hall Museum

Albert Hall Museum is a grandeur exhibition of the cultural and historical riches of Jaipur, located in the lovely Ram Niwas Garden. Its beautiful Indo-Saracenic architecture is displayed through 16 galleries, all home to a collection of heritage artefacts and antiques.

Inside, there are 19 remarkable astronomical instruments built by Sawai Jai Singh 2 in 1734. Highlighting this is the largest sundial in the world.

At the foot of Moti Dungri Hill in Jaipur lies the Birla Mandir or the Laxmi Narayan Temple — a quiet and serene, must-visit site that attracts thousands of visitors every single day. Officially opened in 1988, this holy home to Lord Vishnu and Goddess Lakshmi represents all that is great about India’s religious and cultural legacy. Constructed from clean white marble, it embodies both modern and classical details in its striking design.

Jaigarh Fort is situated on the Aravalli Ranges at an altitude of 500 feet above sea level. The palace has stunning views of the nearby Aravalli Range and Maota Lake. Built in 1726 under Maharaja Sawai Jai Singh, it was the final defense for the Amer Fort and its palatial complex. Noteworthy features of the fort include a Persian-style garden, intricately design lattice windowsi, the Awani Darwaza (triple-arched entrance of the fort), and a central watch tower that offers stunning views of the picturesque landscape.

That is Jal Mahal — a five-storey building with the lower four floors submerged, leaving only the upper storey visible to onlookers. While access within is limited, the magnificent exterior is still on view.
