Very well maintained museum. Built in the 18th Century by the rulers of Jaipur the City Palace is a gem to watch. The palace is now turned into a heritage hotel and a museum. I really loved the architecture and the intrinsic details in it. The peacock door is a famous attraction here. There are many artifacts belonging to Sawai Man Singh and his family. This is the place where Lord Mountbatten's swearing in ceremony took place. There's always a rush no matter at what time you visit the palace. The parking is very close by and so is the market and street food shops. The descendants of the former rulers of Jaipur still reside in one part of this palace.
Sawai Man Singh II, popularly known as Mor Mukut Singh was the last ruling Maharaja of Jaipur belonging to Kachwaha clan of Rajputs. Born on August 21, 1911, Sawai Man Singh II ruled the princely state between 1922 and 1949 and eventually the state acceded unto the Dominion of India.. ud83dude0aud83dude4fud83dudc4c
