Hawa Mahal Jaipur : The must visit place
Good Architecture : The palace is a five-story pyramidal shaped monument that rises to a height of 50 feet from its high base.
The top three floors of the structure have a dimension of one room width while the first and second floors have patios in front of them, on the rear side of the structure. The front elevation, as seen from the street, is like a honeycomb web of a beehive built with small portholes. Each porthole has miniature windows and has carved sandstone grills, finials and domes.
