The city palace is in the middle of Jaipur and is surrounded by people and filth. The state of Rajasthan and the Maharaja who lives inside does not seem to see the filth outside. I am not sure how the Maharaja and his family get through without seeing all the dirt and filth that is outside their gate. The palace... more

For the price you pay (RS.300 a person) it doesn't quite deliver. However, it is a central piece of Jaipur's history, so I think ti was worth seeing. The small textiles museum displaying the old clothing and cloths was very good, and the weapons museum was also pretty interesting. If you'd like to take a picture with any of the... more

This was one of my favorite palaces that we toured in this region of India because there are 2-3 fully decorated rooms where you can see paintings, decorations and furniture as it would have been in use by the Maharaja in several rooms. There are also collections of artifacts--a weapons room and a textiles room. more

Depends really on your attitude to museums and looking through room after room of old guns and clothes. Although the clothes are interesting in a kitsch kind of way. It's hard to believe that these Maharajahs were the masters of such a masculine culture as Rajasthan, particularly after seeing their specially designed snooker jackets. Whilst the architecture is beautiful, the... more
