The Lake Palace is
one of the most beautiful palaces in the
world, arising out of the Turquoise Waters of
the Pichola like an elegant
fantasy
in white marble. The Lake palace was built in
the 17th century on a natural
foundation of 4 acers of rock. It was
initially called Jaginwas after its founder
Maharana Jagjit Singh . The Maharana, ruler of
Jaipur from 1628 to 1654, was very friendly
with Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan and encouraged
his craftsmen to copy some of the glories of
his incomparable buildings at Agra. The rooms
are decorated with cusped arches, inland
stones of pink, and green lotus leaves and
painted mirrors.
