Jaipur to Nepal

The capital city of Rajasthan, Jaipur is one of the most popular tourist destinations in India. Famous as the Pink City, this place is known for its colourful culture, majestic forts, beautiful palaces and temples, attracting tourists from all parts of the world. On a trip to Jaipur, visitors can explore the Hawa Mahal - known for its unique architecture, behold the magnificent sight of Sheesh Mahal - decorated with thousands of mirror-tiles and visit Jantar Mantar – an astronomical observatory built by Maharaja Jai Singh. The Jal Mahal is one of the most beautiful palaces here, built in the middle of the Man Sagar Lake. The City Palace in the Old City is a classic example of Indo-Islamic architecture and is worth visiting on a Jaipur tour. The Nahargarh Fort - offering spectacular views of the lake, Jaigarh Fort - known for the world’s largest wheeled cannon and the enigmatic palace-fort complex of Amber Fort are some of the must-visit places here. The city houses a large number of temples, beautiful gardens and busy marketplaces as well. No wonder, Jaipur is one of the most iconic heritage destinations in India. To explore this city conveniently, MakeMyTrip offers a number of customised Jaipur tour packages for convenience of visitors.

Nepal, an acronym for ‘Never Ending Peace and Love’, is a cultural powerhouse of the Himalayas. Sheltered by the majestic Himalayas, golden temples, charming hill villages and jungle wildlife, Nepal is special and populated by some of the most beautiful people on the planet. Kathmandu, the capital city, is a unique amalgamation of culture and modernity; famous for the old royal palace at Durbar Square, a UNESCO Heritage Site, now on the mend! The Kathmandu Valley in particular offers an unrivalled collection of world-class palaces, hidden backstreet shrines and sublime temple art. A visit to Swayambhunath (or Monkey temple) is an essential experience in Kathmandu. An adventurer’s paradise- trekking the rugged trails of the Everest, the Annapurnas and beyond, rafting on a roaring Nepali river or bungee jumping into a yawning Himalayan gorge, canoeing, climbing, kayaking, paragliding and mountain biking; Pokhara offers the perfect array of activities for that adrenaline kick. Spare a day to spot some wildlife at the Chitwan National Park. For the spirituals ones, enroll in a short course on Buddhist Studies or Tibetan at the Rangjung Yeshe Institute, stopping en route to visit the birthplace of Buddha on the steamy plains near Lumbini or Bhaktapur, with its cobbled streets and red-brick houses, temples and statues at every street corner. An enchanting blend of Hindu and Buddhist mysticism, Nepal is a peaceful land. Try the traditional Nepali and Tibetan cuisine; shaphale, chhoyla, momos, sel roti, dhindo! Nepal is just a step away from heaven; you can book your flights with MakeMyTrip India.
