Its three most famous destinations-the pink city of Jaipur, the blue city of Jodhpur and the lake city of Udaipur-teem with hidden delights, from bustling local markets to old observatories to tranquil gardens.

The beginning of each familiar song evoked spontaneous applause and shouts of encouragement from the eager audience.Despite her tranquil appearance, Jones’s voice alone was anything but.
