Why was it named Toran Dwar?

The reason behind why this gate was named Toran Gate is also quite interesting. In Rajasthan, when the bride and groom get married, the groom's family takes a wedding procession to the bride's house. He touches the Toran before the bride enters the house. Only after this the guests can enter the house. The tourists who come here to visit Jaipur are their guests. To welcome him, the Rajasthan government has built this beautiful arch gate.
