Why go to Alwar
Bala Quila fort and the City Palace museum. A less-visited Rajasthani fort town, easily combined as a day trip on the Jaipur–Delhi route.
Is it worth it?
If you have three days in Jaipur, Alwar fits in as a relaxed day trip without cutting into the city. With two days, we'd keep to Jaipur itself.
