pleasure spot. It was used for the royal duck shooting parties. On the road to Amber at a distance of 6.5 kms from Jaipur are the cenotaphs of the royal family. A causeway leads to Jal Mahal Palace situated in the middle of Man Sagar lake, opposite the cenotaphs.The first four floors of this building is under water, only the top floor remains outside.One can have a wonderful view of the lake and the palace from Nahargarh Fort Built in 1799, Jai Mahal Jaipur is now abandoned, but reasonably well preserved. In the monsoons, Jai Mahal Jaipur looks particularly startling with its red sandstone set against the water hyacinth filled lake. |
