Jaipur is home to many royal palaces. In the 19th century, Jaipur\u2019s architecture was one of the best in the Asian continent. <\/span><\/p>\n

Sawai Ram Singh was one of the kings in Jaipur during the 19th century. He painted the entire city in Pink in honor of the royal guest, the Prince of Wales in 1853. Pink was then considered the color of hospitality and became a rule for all households and other buildings to get painted pink. History says that the city used to be white before the ritual of turning it into pink,<\/span><\/p>\n

The prince was overwhelmed with the king\u2019s hospitality. On his tour around the city, when he found everything Pink, he exclaimed- \u201cPink City.\u201d This is how Jaipur got its name- the Pink city.<\/span><\/p>\n

We can say, the themed decoration to celebrate an event has been in trend since ages. Even today, every year, the government paints the city pink during Diwali. In the rest of the cities in India, people paint\/whitewash their own houses. You can imagine the grandeur of Jaipur, where people paint the entire city to celebrate a festival.<\/span><\/p>\n

Its lovable pinkness makes it a visual delight for the people who visit this city. Poets have penned down poems keeping in mind the unmatchable beauty of Jaipur and tourists across the globe have captured memories through their travelogues.<\/p>\n
