Once into the walled city also called the parkota in the local language your first stop would be the amazing 'Hawa Mahal' roughly translated to as the 'Palace of Winds'. It is one of the iconic buildings of Jaipur. Built by Sawai Pratap Singh in 1799 almost half a century after Jaipur was built as an extension to the Zenana Quarters of the City Palace Complex. Overlooking the street it gave the ladies of the Royal Family a view of outside life of the city from the veils of the intricate stone latices. The Structure from outside is shaped in the form of the 'Mukut' or the Crown of Lord Krishna with 953 latticed windows made of red & pink sandstone is a sheer delight to watch. 

The Honeycombed Latticed Windows
The honeycomb structure brings in cool breeze into the women quarters and thus a pleasant respite in the blistering heat of the desert of Rajasthan.
