CUTLURAL SPECTACLE

As thinking of Jaipur in mind the first thing goes in our mind is unmatchable culture. But how this culture is still standing. Hence this is a long preserving work done by people.

Rulers of Jaipur contributed so much for this still standing heritage .one of the best  examples of this is in art preserving hall in city palace

When we visit a vintage location we often praise art .But we forget about  the persons with exceptional talent behind the art

Nevertheless, rulers of Jaipur recognize timeless work of art and made a hall for promotion of artist’s generation in city palace . which includes miniature art ,wooden art , perfumes, jewelry and other remarkable art of Rajasthan.

Polo pride of Jaipur

Jaipur and its royal family has close connection with polo .maharaja man singh had a great interest in polo and he was the one who take polo in Jaipur then came maharaja sawaimadhosingh made first polo yard and this history goes on.

Let’s talk about a military officer, not only an officer but also a maharaja but a love towards country made him on this path.a decorated military officer, is an accomplished sportsman, he also represented India in polo .

Even current maharaja of Jaipur Padmanabh singh is also a great player of polo.

Mubharak mahal of Jaipur signifies the importance of polo in history of Jaipur. One of my most fascinating from all is night polo ball which is used to play polo in night.
