About Hawa Mahal
Hawa Mahal ("The Palace of Winds") is a historic palace made with the red and pink sandstone. It was built in 1799 by Maharaja Sawai Pratap Singh (the grandson of Sawai Jai Singh, who was the founder of Jaipur). Its unique five floors exterior is akin to the honeycomb of a beehive with its 953 small windows called Jharokhas decorated with intricate latticework. (Jaipur, India)
