Things To Do In Jaipur

[Nipunn]

Next month I will be going to Jaipur with my family, we all want to make the most of this trip. So I would like to know what things can be done while in Jaipur, what must-visit attractions and historical landmarks are, and what unique things are in Jaipur.

Also because we are not local I would like recommendations on the best foot joints and traditional foods that must be tried while in Jaipur.

Please also mention any festivals or events that may take place to get a real feel of Rajasthan culture.
