Like other travellers have mentioned before, this is great to look at from a distance but not so great close-up (a real tourist stop and beprepared to be hassled by street traders). Rumour has it that the property will be sold to a hotel group to convert into something more special than it currently is. So fingers crossed!

Nice water palace to see sitting here in this picturesque " Man Sagar lake " with the mountains in the background.

I did not understand how the water are around and what is the purpose to make in between the water.....here i feed the many fishes, which was touching experience that atleast i did it somthing

It's amazing view of the Jal Mahal in the center of the lake especially if visited in the morning during the sunrise.

Stopped to look on the way back from amber fort. No reflection in the water. Pretty far from the road. Not really worth a visit.

Cannot visit, just see it from the bank of the lake. Looks stunning on a sunny day. Do not need to spend long. Lots of touts selling trinkets by the viewpoint.

The venue was poorly maintained and the water had a foul smell due to pollution etc. The palace did not look like it was maintained well. apparently there is legal dispute around a commercial lease for running the venue.

Saw the Jal Mahal from the road as I dont think anyone is allowed to the palace in the lake. Looked pretty from a distance but is definitely not as outstanding as some of the monuments I saw in Rajasthan.

Although there is nothing much that one can do except appreciating the beauty of this monument.. but the beauty speaks volume.. This should be visited during the sunset time.. It would give a different impact.. Jal Mahal falls on the way to Nahrgarh, Amber and Jai garh fort..
