AWESOME AMBER FORT

Eleven kilometers outside the city of Jaipur stands this magnificent structure called Amber Fort. With a wonderfully medieval flavor, it is a complex filled with numerous palaces, the handiwork of three of the old kingdom's rulers. We took an elephant ride up the steep rampart that cuts diagonally across the forbidding walls, giving awesome views of the river below and the surrounding mountainous terrain. Great fun!
