We stopped for a photo shoot at the Ramnivas garden with museum and archeological office. There are 7 gates into the old Jaipur City market. There we viewed the spectacular architecture of Hawa Mahal, or Palace of Winds, a 5 storied building erected in 1799 by Sawai Pratap Singh designed with delicate honeycombed sandstone windows acting as screens for the veiled royal ladies for them to observe unnoticed the street scenes, royal processions and festivals from the balconies.
