"The Jal Mahal: Jaipur's Royal Pleasure Palace Many mysteries surround the Jal Mahal or “Water Palace,” one of Rajasthan's most ethereal palaces. Constructed in the 18th century by Jai Singh ll, the pale sandstone pavilion stands in stark contrast to the deep blue waters of Mansagar Lake, which it seems to float on, 4km north of Jaipur. A magnificent blend of Mughal and Rajputana craftsmanship, it was allegedly a pleasure palace for royal families, especially in the hot Rajasthani summers. But what did the royals do there? Was the Jal Mahal a site for royal picnics and lavish banquets? Did ladies of the court gossip the day away while their princes hunted game in the Nahargarh Hills that border the lake? Scholars can only speculate. What we know is that the enchanting palace is part of a massive renovation project that aims to preserve its magic for future generations. Combine a visit with one to the Amber Fort, also on the main Amer-Jaipur road."

View point of Jal Mahal was beautiful but cleaness is the major issue in the whole Jaipur City. There was dust and plastic wrapper everywhere. Tourist city like Jaipur must be clean atleast major tourist spot must be clean. You can enjoy the evening time here when light get on. Overall okay place to spent your time in evening.. parking and other facilities need to improve.

Really lovely palace which sits right in the middle of the man sagar lake in jaipur. The view of the palace is beautiful with the hills to one side and water all around. Need more maintenance and cleanliness as the water is dirty and needs treatment. Its a pity that common man has no access to the palace. You will be hawked by photographers offering to take snaps in traditional rajasthani dressing. Bargain well if you want to engage their service.

Jal Mahal is a pretty spot to visit in Jaipur. The view of the palace in the middle of the lake is amazing, especially in the evening. It does get a bit crowded since both tourists and locals enjoy hanging out here, and honestly, the place could be kept a little cleaner. But overall, it’s a nice stop to enjoy the scenery and click some great pictures.

It's A great place to view click pictures with your friends and family. Spending a good time here. Buy something for home decoration eat street food. Camel 🐪 ride most important here. Historic place has great vibes here.

Floating in the middle of Man Sagar Lake, the palace looked magical with its golden façade reflecting off the calm waters. The atmosphere was quiet and peaceful, giving me plenty of time to take in the view without feeling rushed. While entry inside isn’t allowed, just watching the palace from the lakeside, surrounded by hills and birds skimming the water, was memorable. It’s a short stop but absolutely worth it for the beauty and tranquility.

As entry isn't allowed, so no tickets. Just spend the time by walking and just seating, chilling and enjoying the beautiful view. A palace in Lake and perk is it's green mount background. Away from high rise building, only you and nature. Management should work over cleanliness here.

Beautiful palace in the middle of man sagar lake. It is very scenic with green mountains in back ground. You can take nice stroll around the area. It is 250 years old

Jal Mahal is a great place to visit, and the best part is that there’s no entry fee. However, one thing to keep in mind — it’s not the best spot to visit during the rainy season. The area around the water tends to collect a lot of waste, and the outer paths can become quite slippery. Despite that, I had a good overall experience. Worth a visit
