Jaipur Parks, Gardens and Jaipur Arboretums
(Jaipur, Rajasthan, India, IN)
Various parks and Mughal-style gardens are to be found both within central Jaipur and on the outskirts of the city. Many of the most significant parks are dedicated to important individuals, such as the Vidyadhar Garden, which is of great importance to the city itself, since it is dedicated to Jaipur's leading architect, Vidyadhar, who was directly responsible for much of the structure within Jaipur today.
Also consider visiting the beautiful Jai Niwas Garden and Kanak Vrindavan Garden, where fragrant flowers and exotic plants await, while for children, a visit to the zoological gardens at Ram Niwas Bagh will be sure to be a big hit. Jaipur's main parks and gardens are described further below.
