Hawa Mahal: Ladies by the Windows


A stunning sight in central Jaipur is the Hawa Mahal or the Palace of  Breeze.  The five storey high redstone building has over 900 windows. Its many windows allows  the breeze to circulate into the structure.  This is where the royal ladies viewed from the windows life outside of the palace without being seen.

At present you can not enter the Palace and will only be able to appreciate its beauty from the outside.
