GOLF
The aristocracy were enamoured of the
gentlemen's game that was so popular in British
India. Unfortunately, the weather did not permit
them the indulgence of creating golf courses in
this arid wilderness, and it was only in Jaipur,
as a part of the large scale palace renovations
undertaken by Maharaja Man Singh that a course
was added to the city.

That 18-hole course is still the only one in
Jaipur and, in fact, in Rajasthan, and though it
is not a professional course, it is good for a
round of golf in what are picturesque
surroundings.
Jaipur has blushed pink ever since 1727 when
Maharaja Sawai Jai Singh II had it built. It is
the only city in the world symbolizing the nine
divisions of the universe through nine
rectangular sectors sub – dividing it. The
palaces and forts of yesteryears that were
witness to royal processions and splendors are
now living monuments , accepted naturally into
the lifestyles of the people of the jaipur
