Drenched in romance, chivalry and medieval glory, Jaipur
has some of the most enticing architectural jewels of
Rajasthan and the City Palace is a monumental work of
art that reflects in no uncertain terms the artistic
skill of stonemasons and builders who were patronized
by the Rajput rulers.
Since the Old Jaipur City was carefully planned, the
City Palace occupied a major chunk of the area and is
thus a massive palace complex set on wide avenues with
divine shrines, exquisitely built royal quarters, palatial
buildings, arches, colonnades, temples, courtyards and
doorways.
Though the initial structures were constructed by Maharaja
Sawai Jai Singh, quite a few palaces and structures
were constructed by his successors. An eclectic fusion
of Rajputana and Mughal architecture, the City Palace
Complex in Jaipur is an architectural marvel.
Explore the museum within the City Palace Complex that
displays a wide variety of things, objects d' art and
royal household goods that were in use during the glorious
Rajputana rule.
See Persian rugs, miniature paintings and two massive
silver vessels within the City Palace complex that were
used for carrying water from the holy Ganges. These
vessels find a mention in the Guinness Book of World
Records as the largest silver vessels in the world.
Tour the Mubarak Mahal, Diwan-I-Khas, Diwan-I-Aam, Chandra
Palace, Hawa Mahal and other interesting buildings that
form the City Palace Complex in Jaipur, Rajasthan, India.
