City Palace
Built by Maharaja Sawai Jai Singh in the 19th century, the City Palace is the perfect example of unique combination of Rajput and Mughal style of architecture. The royal family of Jaipur still resides in the Chandra Mahal of the City Palace complex. What amazes the visitors is the collection of armors with highly skilled decorative work on them, beautiful royal costumes―clothing of the then Maharajas and Maharanis―royal portraits and pictures on the walls and the two large pieces of silverware in the world.
