Jaipur has long been a go-to destination in not just Rajasthan, but India as a whole for its incredible age-old architecture, culture and cuisine. It stands today as an amalgamation of the regions historical past and modern present. You see huge fancy billboards standing side by side to intricate minarets. Elephant-back tours of forts as flashing cars go whistling by — it’s safe to say that it’s a place of extremes. Here the Hawa Mahal, Jal Mahal, Nahargarh Fort and City Palace are just a few of the wonders of the past that continue to hold their heads high in the bustling city.

Photographers, videographers and cinematographers often throng to the Pink City to captures its majesty, be it the star of the show or as the backdrop of a hit Bollywood number. Delhi-based digital producers Girish Jain and Rahul Mahipal travelled back to their homeland to visually document the beautiful city in an incredible hyperlapse video. It took 35 days and a reported 47,786 still images to create this masterpiece, which may sound a lot easier than you think but don’t be fooled. Each image is taken for a different angle; “Basically, you take a shot with every step you take,” Jain told Huffington Post, and compiling it all into the video we see today is no walk in the park. We get to watch all the sights and splendour of Jaipur as days transition into star spangled nights through an innovative, modern lens.
