Our review

Amber (Amer) Fort sits on a ridge above Maota Lake, about 11 km from central Jaipur. Built in red sandstone and marble, it combines Rajput and Mughal styles across a series of courtyards and halls.

The Sheesh Mahal, the Mirror Palace, is the highlight: its walls and ceiling are inlaid with thousands of small mirrors. Combine it with the City Palace and Hawa Mahal in town for a full day.
