Ajit
Bhawan Palace Jodhpur
Ajit Bhawan was exclusively built for Maharaja Ajit Singh, the younger
brother of maharajah of Jodhpur. It is an impressive red sandstone
structure of 1940's with arched windows, carved balconies and cupolas
adding to its rugged beauty. The most interesting feature in the building
is the courtyard-a quadrangle with exquisitely carved latticework. |
Amer
Fort Jaipur
The sprawling Amber Fort is a typical example of what the lives of
our gallant Rajputs were like – militant, adventurous, temperamental
and also self-indulgent. It is among the best hilltop forts in India.
Within the stern exteriors that seem to grow out of the rugged hills
are mighty gates, temples, huge ornate halls, palaces, pavilions,
gardens and even a ramp to take you to the hilltop palace! and guess
who climbs the ramp? Elephants. |
Chittaurgarh
Fort
Chittaurgarh exhibits the pride and glory of Rajasthan in the form
of its various forts and monuments. It is a ruined citadel where the
royal past lives in the imposing forts, graceful palaces and spectacular
chhatris. The entire city echoes with the tales of romance and valor
unique to the Rajput tradition. |
City
Palace Jaipur

not only a part of the former glory of India, but still serves as

the Pink City of Jaipur, the architecture is an imposing blend of
traditional Rajasthan and Mughal art. |
City
Palace Udaipur

guarded by crenellated fort walls. A riot of arches, domes, turrets,
crenellations and chattris crown the steep fortress. |
Hawa
Mahal Jaipur
Jaipur is a fascinating city but to make the city fascinating, it
has great palaces and other structures that are architectural wonders.
Look you may from whichever way - houses, shops and havelis - they
are all pink. The long crenellated walls protecting the city and the
huge gateways guarding the entrance to the city are all in pink. |
Jaisalmer
Fort Jaisalmer
Deep in the heart of the Thar Desert is Jaisalmer, one of the last
princely bastions in the region. Founded on what was the cross - road
of lucrative trade routes, this remote settlement came to be celebrated
for the valour of its rulers, and for the aesthetic sense represented
by their palaces and havelis. |
