For all travel-obsessed princess devotees with a flair for royal girly aesthetics and intriguing narratives, we've found the ultimate staycation and it lies within the Pink City!

- SRUSHTI KULKARNI

Add in its dreamy monsoon-charged greenness, over 200 free-roaming peacocks and voila—you've got your very own Indian Disney princess reverie unfolding right before your eyes. Check into Jaipur's Taj Sawai Man Mahal—a tribute to Maharaja Sawai Man Singh II, Jaipur's last ruling maharaja and former ambassador to Spain—and suddenly every corner becomes engaging and appears equally, if not more, aesthetic. The rose petal shower and folk dance welcome aside, enter the palace and you will be marvelling at the restored red sandstone fort-like walls, golden gate and weapons wall art in the lobby—an architectural nod to the grandeur of Amber Fort.
