Why Go

Sawai Jai Singh II built it from the 1720s, when he founded Jaipur, and part is still the royal family's home. See the four painted gates of the Pritam Niwas Chowk, the armory and the textile collection.

Look for the two huge silver urns in the Diwan-i-Khas, among the largest silver objects in the world.
