The ecstasy that is called the Samode palace is the one is better experienced than read. Samode palace is hardly 40 kms from the capital of the state Jaipur and can be reached by road with an hour and a half. According to the historical evidences, Samode was a flourishing state of the Nathawat clan from Chomu, a branch of the house of Amber and was among the wealthiest territories of the Amber kingdom.
The palace is the perfect example of Rajput-Mughal architecture and is built over a small hillock and planned in a progression of courtyards of increasing height. The extravagantly decorated Durbar Hall and the Sheesh Mahal are the prime attractions of this fabulous palace.
It was converted into a Heritage Hotel in 1987 and since then has been acknowledged as the fifth best hotel in the world by Times London.
