City Palace
The City Palace was built in 1793 A.D. by Raja Bakhtawar Singh. It represents
a intermingling of Rajput and Mughal stvles. It has graceful marble pavilions
set on lotus flower bases in the central courtyard.
Once this palace was part of the Maharajas ornate lifestyle and housed, among
other things, a drinking cup cut out of a single emerald in its treasury and
a mammoth, double storied four-elephant carriage in its stables. Today however
the palaces has been converted into the district's collectorate, and its hall
and chambers have a been turned into government offices.
