Part of our prearranged personal guided tour whilst in Jaipur. Jal Mahal is a beautiful palace built and situated in the Man Sagar Lake, which you can views from the Amer Road. This palace is built in red sandstone, a five-storied building, of which four floors remain underwater. Sadly there is no entry to the palace and can only be viewed from the road. There is a lovely lake which could be brought to life with investment for the lake and palace to have quality restaurants, water and sailing facilities.

Jal Mahal (Water Palace) is a palace in the middle of the Man Sagar Lake. Jal Mahal Palace is not open to visitors.you can only appreciate the beauty of this palace by a boat ride in the Lake.The palace, built in red sandstone, is a five-storied building, of which four floors remain underwater. The palace is built in Rajput style of architecture. Spend time on the walkway of the lake doing shopping, clicking pictures and checking the eateries.

Jal Mahal is a Palace in the middle of the Man Sagar Lake, Jaipur, Rajasthan. The palace was constructed in 1699. The building and the lake around it were later renovated and enlarged in the 18th century by Maharaja Jai Singh II of Amber. A short distance from the main city, you can see it on the way back from your Amber Fort visit.

As a pleasure spot noted for its intricate architecture.The first four floors of this building is under water, only top floor remains outside..From Nahargargh Fort one can have wonderful view of the lake and the Palace.Although the Palace is now abondoned .it is reasonably well preserved. In monsoon with its red sandstone set against water hyacinth filled lake looked particularly startling.. The walkaway being used by tourist for the view, but being occupied by hawkers.

The Lake Palace of Jaipur is an architectural marvel. Nestled in the middle of the lake it is no doubt a treat to watch from the shore. However, as a tourist we are not allowed to enter the building and the charm ends with a few clicks from the shore. Hopefully someday it is renovated enough for the tourist to enjoy its glamour from within through a short boat ride.

No tour here. Just on way back to Chandigarh after Amber fort your taxi will stop and you snap a photo or two. It's empty. So probably 10 minutes is enough time. Can grab a water here too. Keep some change. I only had a few small bills and when the beggar mom asked for money for her baby I offered what I had and she said it's not enough. My next bill was a 500, so I kept my money and gave it to the next beggar who was more appreciative.

Jal Mahal if visited Udaipur, you will find this place not worth. You will not be able to visit the mahal like udaipur by boat. You just enjoy the viewing the place from shore. Its like picnic point of residents. You will have many eating hawkers, street shopping , camel ride etc around. Overall its just a ok place to cover. If missed its not to be upset.

Nice place but just a photo option. Not allowed inside or near the palace. But the lake side has a cluster of shops selling fancy trinkets and snack items. Can spend a pleasant lazy evening
