One of the highlights of Jodhpur is the Umaid Bhawan, an opulent palace
which has now been converted into a plush hotel. Several parts of the
palace are still open to the public, which give you a glimpse into the
royal times. The construction of the palace was ordered in 1923 by
Maharaja Umaid Singh in order to provide families with work and income
during a time of drought and famine. The manicured lawns and the
intricate architecture make the palace a sight to behold.Wednesday, October 28, 2015
