Caption: Jaipur, Rajasthan, India - Apr 2003. Guards of the Jaipur City Palace take a rest from the 40 degrees Celsius outside.

Princes once renowned for their extravagant pomp and spending, once dethroned and stripped of land, were allowed to keep their palaces. Deprived of the taxes they collected from farmers and villagers, they had to convert their stately homes into tourist ventures such as museums and hotels to avoid bankruptcy.
