Trivia: Which Indian city is known as “the Pink City?”

Colombo
Mumbai
Jaipur
Varanasi

The correct answer is Jaipur

So why is this answer correct? : The pink terracotta walls of the buildings within Jaipur’s historic district date back to 1876, when Britain’s Prince Albert embarked on a 17-week tour of India. Keen to make a lasting impression on his guest, the Maharaja of Jaipur decided that his entire city should be painted pink. The continued use of the pink hue to decorate buildings is now enforced by local law.
