Out of all Tye tourist destination in pink city, city palace is one of the prominent place to visit. More of a museum now it has contains many foot prints of old India which showcase many traditional look.

Once the palace was ceremonioal and administrative palace for the Maharaja. Built around 1727 it happen to be a centre point for then ruler Sawai Man Singh. Being a museum now it has many old warheads and ammunition.

The place is well occupied by many visitors who keep walking in the vast compound of the palace and gives a awe look to every corner of it. The building looks to be a normal but still it was one of the oldest in the city.

A big compound in front of the main building to accomodate the bigger crowd.

The history of the city palace is closely linked with the history of Jaipur city and its rulers, starting with Maharaja Sawai Jai Singh who ruled from 1699 to 1744. He is credited with initiating construction of the city complex by building the outer wall of the complex spreading over many acres. Initially, he ruled from his capital at Amber, which lies at a distance of 11 kilometres (6.8 mi) from Jaipur. He shifted his capital from Amber to Jaipur in 1727 because of an increase in population and increasing water shortage.

The palace has still the old looks with the workers still wearing some old traditional costumes. They too need rest to manage all Tye rush.

There are many things for the onlookers like the old chandiler which is mostly covered with pigeons.

It happen to have a big clock on top of one of the tomb. May be this is the indication of the main city point.
