If you want to capture Hawa Mahal in its full glory, make sure to get there early in the morning. In addition to being less crowded, that’s also the time when this palace will look its best because the sun will amplify its color.

Hawa Mahal, "The Palace of Winds", Jaipur-India. Made with red and pink sandstone, the palace sits on the edge of the City Palace, and extends to the Zenana, or women's chambers. Its unique five floors exterior is akin to the honeycomb of a beehive with its 953 small windows called Jharokhas, decorated with intricate latticework. The original intent of the lattice design was to allow royal ladies to observe everyday life and festivals celebrated in the street below, without being seen, since they had to obey the strict rules of "purdah", which forbade them from appearing in public without face coverings. • • #hawamahal #hawamahaljaipur #jaipur #windpalace #windpalacejaipur #india #jaipurdiaries #rajasthan #rajasthandiaries #indiatourism #visitindia #incredibleindia #jaipurarchitecture #indianarchitecture #pinkcity #pinkcityjaipur #hindurajput #mughal #mughalarchitecture #rajputstyle #beautifuldestinations #sonyalpha #sony #sonymea #natgeoyourshot #natgeo #natgeotravel #natgeoindia

Focus on the Details
