10 Must See Palaces in India


One of the most magnificent and popular palace complexes in the country, the Umaid Bhawan in Jodhpur, Rajasthan, is built entirely using sandstone. The palace was built by Maharaja Umaid Singh and was the last expression of princely architectural burlesque during the British Raj. The palace was converted into a hotel in 1977 and divided into three sections- a royal apartment where the royal family resides, a hotel run by the Taj Group and a Museum that showcases a rich display of royal artifacts belonging to the royal family. The clock collection on display is a must and should not be missed.
