The tuk‑tuk bumps out of a narrow lane and the city spills open — sun-bright sandstone walls, a scatter of blue-painted homes, and the Mehrangarh ramparts climbing the skyline. The small three-wheeler threads through bazaars where spice stalls and brassware blink in the light; the air carries dust, diesel, and the distant chant of temple bells. Riding in a tuk‑tuk is part transport, part theater: you feel the city’s pulse from the open side and the driver becomes both guide and local emissary.
