Hello friends welcome to my blog one more time. Today we will talk about Hawa Mahal in Jaipur, Rajasthan. Hawa Mahal is one of the oldest buildings in Rajasthan. Hawa Mahal is built with pink and red stones. Anyway, most of its old buildings are made of red and pink stones. Therefore, this city is also called Pink City.
The happy thing about Hawa Mahal is that it is the highest building in the world without any foundation. This building has 953 windows, in only 5 floors. Hence this palace is called "Palace of Winds". There is a reason to keep these windows.
At that time, women followed the practice of Padaada. In which women always used to put a netting in front of their faces. Because of this she was afraid to go to social work. That is why Maharaja Sawai Pratap Singh built it there.
The main objective of the construction of this beautiful Hawa Mahal was to allow the royal Rajput women of royal Jaipur to see the festivities happening on the road from the vents.
You can visit Jaipur during the winter season. The peak season for tourists is from the beginning of November to the middle of February. With the pleasant weather, you will be able to visit many ancient buildings here in a relaxed manner. The time to see Hawa Mahal is from 9:30 am to 4:30 pm. However, the best time to see this building is in the morning when golden rays of the sun fall on this royal building. This view gives an even more elegant and grand appearance to Hawa Mahal. Hawa Mahal Museum is closed on Fridays, so it is better to visit Hawa Mahal on other days.
