City Palace The City Palace The Heart of the Pink city is where the City Palace is situated, a place of pride where the former Maharaja still lives with his family. The whole complex is wonderfully laid out with large courtyards, gardens and buildings, which have both the Rajput and Mughal architecture, combined to give a beautiful facade. The Diwan-E-Khas or Hall of Private Audience, the Mubarak Mahal are exquisitely designed. With exception of the seven story Chandra Mahal the other areas are used to display the rich heritage of the Jaipur family whether it be miniature paintings or textiles and garments, books & manuscripts or carpets and palanquins or weapons dating back to the 15th century they are all displayed very artistically to catch your eye.
