Amber fort
I started my day bright and early at 8 AM with a visit to Amber Fort, about 11 km from the city center. As I approached the fort, its grandeur took my breath away. The fort is a stunning mix of Rajput and Mughal architecture, with massive walls, intricately carved gates, and the famous Sheesh Mahal (Mirror Palace) that sparkled like a thousand tiny stars in the morning sunlight.
