City Palace

Pink City

5 min from Metro9:30 AM - 5:00 PM (last entry 4:30 PM)₹200 for Indians, ₹700 for foreigners (camera extra)

This isn't just another palace — the royal family still lives in part of it. The Mubarak Mahal courtyard is where you'll spend most of your time, gawking at the intricate marble work and those massive silver urns (world's largest, apparently Maharaja Madho Singh II took them to England filled with Ganga water because he refused to drink British water). The textile museum upstairs has some stunning outfits. Budget 2-3 hours minimum.
