Experience the history, culture and life of Amber through this spectacular show. Amitabh Bachhan narrates the story of Rajasthani kings with a script written by Gulzar. Don't forget the mosquito repellent. The light show can be watched from outside the fort, but the sound won't be audible from there. There is also a sound and light show at Jantar Mantar for ₹100.

This massive fort-palace complex built in hybrid Hindu-Muslim style dates back to Raja Man Singh and was the royal palace of the Kachwahas from c. 1600-1727. It's one of six UNESCO World Heritage forts in Rajasthan. The name has nothing to do with the rather pretty pastel yellow colour; instead, the fort is named after the area of Amber, in turn named after the goddess Amba.
A 17th-century Hindu temple, and one of the few in India where Meera Bai, the poet-saint of the Bhakti movement, is enshrined alongside Lord Krishna. It is also a site of cultural interest during festivals like Janmashtami, where devotees gather in large numbers for special darshan and bhajans dedicated to Krishna and Meera.
