This palace is impressive - a vast complex of courtyards, gardens and buildings. The outer wall was built by Maharaja Jai Singh II (1693-1743), but other additions are much more recent, some dating from the early 20th century. Today the palace is a blend of Rajasthani and Mughal architecture. Beyond the main courtyard is the seven-storey Chandra Mahal, the maharaja’s residence (off limits to visitors).
