First you smell marigolds . Jaipur is in the state of Rajasthan , in northwest India . It is famous for its pink walls . The old city is called the Pink City . You arrive through a big gate . The gate is old and also pink . Almost every building inside is the same dusty rose color . The king ordered this color in 1876 . He painted the city pink for a royal visit . That was nearly 150 years ago . Today the color law still exists . Shop owners must keep their walls pink . Walk down any street in the old city . You see pink plaster on houses , on shops , on temples . The air smells of spices and jasmine . Rickshaws move fast through narrow lanes . It is a palace with 953 small windows . Breezes pass through every window . Women once watched the street from inside . You can climb to the top floor . From there you see the whole pink skyline . Buy a small block of saffron from the market . Every time you smell it , you are back in Jaipur .
