This rose-hued city seems unreal thanks to its sandcastle-esque appearance, looming above the surrounding state of Rajasthan as though it has risen from the desert. In reality, the frantic city brims with activity of locals (from camels to commuting humans). It’s here that the ever-popular, pink-tinged sandstone façade of Hawa Mahal, a former palace, stands resplendent, waiting for your snapshot.
