We're sat writing this at the Pearl Palace in Jaipur, our last stop of India's Golden Triangle and our best hotel yet, run by the ever-so-willing-to-please Mr Singh.

The Peacock restaurant on top of the hotel is great - the first place we've seen that takes real pride in it's appearance, with great views over the palaces and forts of the heart of Rajasthan; Jaipur.
We've spent a great couple of days here exploring, mainly the old city and it's bazaars, palace, temples and oddities. Here's a few photo highlights below:
