Instagram Context

We climbed up to Amber Fort just as the light started to warm the stone. Colorful walls, endless steps and views that felt unreal from every angle. If you’re heading to Jaipur, add this to your list: Amber Fort at sunrise or golden hour. Trust us, the light does half the work. #MumbaiR26 #BaobabDiaries
