Jal Mahal


The Jal Mahal is a palace in the middle of the Man Sagar Lake, just outside the Jaipur city center. The lake dries up in the dry season but in the monsoon season the only way to reach it is by boat.

When I visited the Jal Mahal could not be visited. The lake got polluted due to sewage flow from the Jaipur city and the palace is uninhabited. I was told nowadays it sees visitors.

Jal Mahal is a good stop when you go to Amber Fort and Jaigarh Fort, it's 4km from the Jaipur city center on the way to the fort.

Jaipur

The Pink City is a pearl in Rajasthan. There's much to see and explore and not only in terms of architecture. Street life here is fascinating.

Jaipur, the Pink City


Amber Fort and Jaigarh Fort

The two forts are basically one fort, a few km further north from Jal Mahal. There can be little doubt the fort is one of the best preserved and most spectacular forts to visit in Rajasthan.
