Incredible Jaipur, Incredible Rajasthan

Of all the places in India, Rajasthan is visited maximum by people from around the world. This state of the Rajas and Maharajas has a rich heritage that people love to see. While its forts, wildlife, palaces, museums, lakes, temples, fairs and festivals are world renowned for a unique experience, art and culture which includes coffee table books printing is another thing gaining tourist affluence now.



This fortified city of Jaipur, the capital of Rajasthan in India’s northwestern state of Rajasthan was founded in 1727 by Sawai Jai Singh II. Unlike other cities in the region located in hilly terrain, Jaipur was established on the plain and built according to a grid plan interpreted in the light of Vedic architecture. Markets, stalls, residences and temples built along the main streets have uniform facades. Somewhere in these bylanes are the hidden gems: book publishers. The city's urban planning shows an exchange of ideas from ancient Hindu and modern Mughal as well as Western cultures. Designed to be a commercial capital, the city has maintained its local commercial, artisanal and cooperative traditions to this day.

This walled city of Jaipur known for its architectural legacy and vibrant culture recently made its entry in the UNESCO World Heritage Site list. Indian Prime Minister, Hon'ble Narendra Modi tweeted “Jaipur is a city associated with culture and valour. Elegant and energetic, Jaipur’s hospitality draws people from all over. Glad that this city has been inscribed as a World Heritage Site by @UNESCO.” A lot of films have been shot at various locations in this pink city, promoting the culture attracting the world. But recently a book publishing house in Jaipur has featured the city in a coffee table book that speak volumes about the city, tradition and culture.

While every publisher around the world have always focused on promoting their culture, but everyone doesn't get successful. However, Maneesh Media, through Jewels of Rajasthan has taken the Rajasthani culture beyond boundaries. In the world of coffee table books printing such books and such publishers wish certainly make a mark, teaching the new generation how important the culture is.
