Day 28 - 30 Paintings in 30 Days September 2016 Challenge-Amer Fort,Jaipur


Amer Fort Jaipur India is a place no one should miss visiting. It is located in Amer, a town with an area of 4 square kilometers located 11 kilometers from Jaipur, Rajasthan state, India. Located high on a hill, it is the principal tourist attraction in the Jaipur area. This magnificent fort is largely made up of a royal palace, built from pale yellow and pink sandstone and white marble, and divided into four main sections, each with its own courtyard. You can trudge up to the fort from the road in about 10 minutes, but riding up on elephant back is very popular. 

Size: 8.25" x 11.75" watercolors on handmade paper from a photo I took during my visit to the Fort, showing one of the watch towers.

In most Indian shops and houses lemon and chilies strung on a thread are hung at the entrance and every Friday  this is changed. This is to ward off evil from entering the house. A superstition special to India!
