Tripolia means three Pols. Pol means arched gateway. This gate derives its name from its three Pols. Some changes were made in Tripolia Gate to enhance its look by Maharajah Sawai Man Singh II, the last ruler of Jaipur.
Tripolia Gate is not open to the public traffic. It is exclusively used by the members of the royal family.
Currently, a high mast light near Tripolia Gate is an eyesore. I often wonder why do we allow such things to be installed in the name of development. Why is aesthetics ignored? These heritage structures attract tourists to the city and we must make sure that the beauty of heritage structures is maintained.
A busy, bustling market in 'Ye Old City' of India's 'Pink City', Jaipur. Teeming with life, it draws in locals and travelers alike to fulfill their varied shopping needs.
An eclectic range of articles big and small, many hued clothes, sweetmeat vendors, all coexist under the awning of the old architectural structure. Behind those great stone walls, Jaipur's history remains alive, housed within the old environs; an educational retreat.
