Jaipur: Isarlat Sargasooli (Victory Tower)
Operating Hours:Monday - Sunday: 09:00 - 17:00
The Vibe:The old city, seen from directly above it.
Raised in 1749 by Maharaja Ishwari Singh to mark a military victory, this seven-storey minaret is among the tallest historic structures in the walled city. It stands just off Tripolia Bazaar.
The climb is a slow spiral away from bazaar noise. At the top, wind and a flat rooftop panorama replace the crowded street below.
