What You'll Experience
Your heritage walk begins where most tourists stop.
While everyone rushes to Amer Fort, we take you down into the historic town of Amer — the original capital of Jaipur, founded in 967 AD.
We start at Panna Meena ka Kund, the breathtaking symmetrical stepwell from the 16th century. From there, wander through narrow lanes to the magnificent Jagat Shiromani Temple (1599 AD), Sitaram Temple, and ancient havelis.
Next, step into the Anokhi Museum of Hand Printing — a beautifully restored mansion dedicated to the art of hand block-printing. Watch artisans demonstrate the 500-year-old craft, see natural dyes, hand-carved teak blocks, and textiles that made Jaipur famous worldwide. It's a must for design and textile lovers.
We finish not at a shop, but at a local family's home where you will be welcomed with freshly brewed masala chai and homemade pakoras. Hear stories of living in Amer for generations.
This is Jaipur's living heritage in 3 hours — spiritual, artistic and deeply local.
