The name Fatehpur Sikri was formerly known as Fatahabad which is derived from a Persian word Fatah meaning victory.

Amber or Amer Palace fort a UNESCO World Heritage Site is located 11 km from main city. Raja Man Singh I began construction in 1592 and the palace, which was built as a strong, safe haven against attacking enemies, was completed by Mirja Raja Jai Singh.

The magnificent Amer Fort is an extensive palace complex that has been built with pale yellow and pink sandstone, and with white marble. The palace is nearly seven centuries old and has a legendary past. Next stop is City Palace, located deep within the walled city, the City Palace Complex was conceived and built by Maharaja Sawai Jai Singh II, the founder of Jaipur. A beautiful fusion of Mughal and Rajput architecture, the palace is still home to the last ruling royal family which lives in a private section of the palace. Maharaja Sawai Jai Singh II is credited with building most of the structures, but it was expanded upon by later rulers as well. Further proceed to Jantar Mantar, Jantar Mantar is one of the oldest astronomical observatories featuring the world’s largest stone sundial. Built by the Rajput king Sawai Jai Singh II - the founder of Jaipur city, the monument was completed in 1734. Later visit Hawa Mahal, the five- storey building looks like a honeycomb of a beehive and it is always windy inside, owing to the numerous windows and jharokhas. This amazing ventilation that the palace enjoys is the reason why it was named as the Hawa Mahal, which literally translates into the “Palace of the Winds” The Hawa Mahal is a five-storey building, and it is the tallest building in the world that has been built without a foundation.
