Hawa Mahal reviews

Absolutely stunning. A must visit when in Jaipur. And you must visit Jaipur to see this historic beauty. Make sure you take a guide to understand the history of the place. Go in the afternoon so that you can see the sunset from here which is a magnificent sight for your eyes. I can't stop gushing about this place enough. So go and experience yourself. Strongly Recommended!! 👍🏻

Well this place is just beautiful ❤️😍. If you really want to see the place in all its glory go at night around 11pm. You won't be able to enter inside but the view from outside is just majestic. It is so stunning and you can click so many pictures without a crowd disturbing you. Highly recommend this place during the day (to go inside the mahal) and at night (to enjoy and view the beautiful colors) 😍😍

Jaipur’s Hawa Mahal, made of red and pink sandstone, is a breathtaking masterpiece of local artistry. From the top of the palace, you can enjoy a panoramic view of the city. And at night, the lights on the architecture create a magical ambiance that’s simply awe-inspiring. If you’re looking for a different perspective, there are two cafes opposite Hawa Mahal where you can watch the beauty of the palace bathed in the night lights .
