Jagmandir Palace

The speciality of the Jag Mandir palace are the series of structures that were built in the Palace over the years that served specific purposes. The Gul Mahal (refugee space for prince Khurram), the Zenana Mahal (south extension of the Gul Mahal), four carved elephants on either sides of the entrance, the Darikhana, Bara Patharon ka Mahal (also known as palace of 12 stones), the Kunwar Pada ka Mahal and the Garden Courtyard are structures in the Palace that portray the finesse and intricate detail of the architecture in the 15th to 17th century.

There is no entrance fee for spending time in the Palace but the ferry rides can vary according to demand season from Rs. 300 to Rs. 700 per person, climate and number of per head visitor. Do spare 3 to 4 hours off to visit this magnificent creation, when you find yourself touring in Kota.
