The elaborate #KesarKyari #saffrongarden with its planted star patterned terraces clearly visible from the Fort. Climbing up the road to the fort, the Kesar Kyari (saffron garden) slowly comes visible, floating like a huge Persian carpet on a large stone terrace rising up from the center of the lake. According to our guide and other sources, the Kesar Kyari was planted with saffron (Crocus) plants so that their scent could waft up to the palace - a strange story for a gardener, as crocuses don't have especially strong scent, and the season of such a planting would have been only very few weeks a year... #srijphotography #amberfort #jaipur #rajasthan #india #pinkcity #isupporttravel #beautifuljaipur #traveldairies #jaipurdairies #rajasthandairies #rajasthantourism #travelrajasthan #unescoworldheritagesite #unesco #worldheritagesite #wanderlust #incredibleindia #indiaclicks #storiesofindia #india_gram #india_everyday #photographers_of_india #mypixeldiary #indianphotography #indianphotographyclub #ig_india #incredibleindiaofficial #cntraveler #cntraveller #natgeotravelpic #natgeotravel #travelerinindia #cntraveller (at Amer Fort)
