Great Wall of Jaipur

Jaipur has its’ own wall, something like the Great Wall of China. While it only stretches for 20 or so kilometers and is hardly comparable to the physical dimensions of the Great Wall of China, it’s still an impressive wall. It was built as part of the medieval fortifications of the city. Jaipur has to be one of the best fortified of all the cities of Rajasthan, perhaps even the world, with three major forts. It’s somewhat sad to me that it took tens of thousands of people decades to build these forts and one U.S. bomber could take them out in a matter of days.
