It showcases royal costumes, weapons, manuscripts, and the beautifully decorated Chandra Mahal, which still serves as a residence for the former royal family. Nearby is the iconic Hawa Mahal (Palace of Winds), Jaipur’s most recognizable landmark. Its unique five-storey façade with hundreds of small windows was designed to allow royal women to observe city life without being seen. The exploration continues at Jantar Mantar, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the world’s largest astronomical observatories.
