As a result, this five-story edifice was built in 1799 by the great Maharaja Sawai Pratap Singh. Also, this palace is decorated with 953 windows or “Jharokhas” which are adorned with intricate designs. There is a small museum within the Hawa complex. Mahal houses famous items such as miniature paintings and ceremonial armor.
The main reason behind the creation of the Hawa Mahal was to compliment Rajput women who were not allowed to appear in public places. Through this fort, all the women glimpsed the royal processions and the bustle of the city. It is for the benefit of women that the Hawa Mahal was built, complete with small windows and screened balconies. If you want to explore more palaces and forts in Rajasthan.
