Where ever there are Rajasthani women there is a riot of colour

All dressed up for the occasion.

 

The Hall of Victory

 Beautiful mirrored ceiling and wall panels made of foil and covered with glass.  At night it is said to have twinkled in the candle light.

The  silver doors of the Kali Temple, where Maharaja Man Singh prayed for victory in battle 

A goat was sacrificed here every day for 400 years, the practice was stopped in 1980.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Kesar Kyari (saffron garden) lies in the center of the manmade Maotha Lake.  Laid out like a Persian carpet the fragrance of the crocus saffron planted here would waft into the palace above.
