You step from a cool, air-conditioned car onto the broad pink stone promenade of Jaipur as the city hums around Hawa Mahal’s honeycombed façade. The first day moves at a measured pace through courtyards, observatories and stepwells — ornate thresholds to Rajasthani history — before an early morning drive east breaks into scrub forest and cracked granite where Ranthambore waits.
