Ghat Ki Guni Tunnel – Jaipur’s Scenic Gateway
While Jaipur is known for its forts and palaces, few talk about the Ghat Ki Guni Tunnel — a modern engineering feat nestled between historic hills. This tunnel, carved through the Aravalli range, offers a dramatic drive connecting the Walled City to NH-11, bypassing busy traffic and offering panoramic hill views.
What makes it special is how it blends seamlessly with Jaipur’s heritage-rich zone while being purely functional and forward-looking.
