City Palace
A magnificent palace that unveils the art and skills of the past, City Palace in Jaipur is an ultimate visual treat for the visitors to Pink City! Built in Mughal and Rajputana style, construction of this imposing palace complex was initiated by Sawai Jai Singh II, the then ruler of Amber. The construction was later completed by his successors with several additions. One of the finest example of Rajasthan’s royalty, imperial lifestyle and architectural brilliance, the impressiveness of City Palace gets further enhanced with a captivating hill serving as its backdrop.
Intricate gates like Virendra Pol, Udai Pol and Tripola Gate serves as the main entrance of this palace. It also has other astounding complexes like Chandra Mahal, Mukut Mahal, Maharani’s Palace, and Mubarak Mahal within its main compound. The palace building also has a temple called Shri Govind Dev Temple and houses the City Palace Museum within its perimeter.
