Stop At: Hawa Mahal - Palace of Wind, Hawa Mahal Tripolia Bazaar Road Badi Choupad, J.D.A. Market, Pink City, Jaipur 302002 India

Built in 1799, the Hawa Mahal is a five-story palace that can be found in the heart of pink city, Jaipur. The palace has 953 honeycomb shaped windows on its exterior walls that were specially carved to let the breeze in the palace. These windows are all peephole-sized to ensure that the royal ladies would not be seen by the public. It is the perfect palace for the summer and was built by Singh as an extension of the nearby City Palace. The building’s architecture was designed similar to the form of the crown of Krishna, the Hindu god.

There are no stairs leading to the upper floors of the palace. They have ramps instead, which were made for the royal ladies’ palanquins. The best time to visit the palace is in the early morning where you could see the honeycomb faced walls of the palace in the morning sunlight.


Duration: 10 minutes

Stop At: Jal Mahal, Amer Road, Jaipur 302002 India

Also known as the Water Palace, Jal Mahal is one of the most peaceful and serene sights you will see in the city of Jaipur. This used to be a shooting lodge for the Maharajah. Today, it is a symmetrical, low-rise palace that appears to be floating at the middle of Man Sagar Lake.

Jal Mahal’s light-colored stone walls make a perfect contrast to the lake’s deep blue waters. Within the area, you will find lush green foliage. This beautiful sight makes the palace one of the most photographed monuments in the city. However, exploring the actual palace is not allowed for visitors.

The palace is located 4 km north of the city on the Amer-Jaipur road. Visitors often visit the Jal Mahal together with the Amer Fort since the two monuments are located on the same side of the city.
