City Palace: Audio Guide
Your pocket guide to Jaipur City Palace
With Tourismo, discover monuments the way they were meant to be explored.
Highlights of the Tour
Located in the heart of Jaipur’s old city, City Palace is not just a monument but a living royal complex, a cultural center where history, art, and daily life still intersect.
Many visitors walk through its courtyards and museums without fully understanding what they are seeing. There is symbolism behind the architecture, a purpose to each space, and the story of the palace's evolution alongside Jaipur itself.
