The last of the great palaces of India, the property houses a family museum, as well as the resplendent Umaid Bhawan Palace.
Soak in the original architecture of a fascinating bygone era and discover the rich history of a palace that has enjoyed actual royal company—Maharani BadanKanwar of Jodhpur having lived here.
