India( Richard Goetz / April 26, 2007 )
An elephant takes life in a slower lane — or perhaps makes its own lane — in Jaipur, one of the points in India’s Golden Triangle, a 430-mile tourist route that includes Delhi and the Taj Mahal in Agra. Ringed by rough-edged hills, Jaipur features a striking town center known as the Pink City, named for the color it was painted for a 19th century visit from Prince Albert, and the City Palace, built in the early 18th century by Jaipur founder Maharajah Sawai Jai Singh II.
