Palace Of The Winds Known as ‘Hawa Mahal’ in Hindi the ‘Palace of the Winds’ was constructed in 1799 for Maharaja Sawai Pratap Singh as part of the women’s section of the enormous City Palace at the centre of Jaipur. The facade we see from the street is essentially an enormous screened porch, one room deep in most places. The palace’s distinctive rosy colour comes from the natural sandstone from which it is built which also gives Jaipur its nickname, ‘The Pink City’. When you officially enter the ‘Pink City’ it warmly welcomes you with a large, very pink archway. From there on out, everything is pink. The library is pink, the buildings are pink, the apartments are pink. ‘Hawa Mahal’ was built without foundation. In fact it is the tallest building in the world without a foundation. The five-storey structure manages to remain upright because of it is curved shape - just another masterpiece of Rajput and Mughal architecture. #chapeaulondon #chapeaublog #dedicatedtothethingswelove #wordsandpictures #amazing #london #lifestyle #hawamahal #jaipur #india #thepalaceofthewinds #jharokhas #krishna #purdah #kachhwaharajputdynasty #maharajasawaipratapsingh #citypalace #pinkcity #pink #sandstone (at Jaipur, Rajasthan)

Palace Of The Winds This beautiful five-storey palace was constructed by Singh who belonged to Kachhwaha Rajput dynasty. Lal Chand Ustad was the main architect of this palace (built of red and pink sandstone). The palace is believed to have been constructed in the form of the crown of Krishna, the Hindu god. ‘Hawa Mahal’ is considered to be the embodiment of Rajputana architecture. The 953 windows, or ‘Jharokhas', covering the lace-like facade of the ‘Palace of the Winds’ were designed to allow the ladies of the royal court to watch the drama of the streets unobserved behind their delicate latticework. The Purdah system followed by the Rajputs is said to be one of the main reasons ‘Hawa Mahal’ was built. During those days, Rajput royal women did not appear in public or in front of strangers. However, they were keen to follow the day-to-day events and royal processions occurring on the streets. It is for their benefit that the ‘Palace of the Winds’ was built, complete with small windows and screened balconies. This gave the women a sense of freedom, without appearing in public. #chapeaulondon #chapeaublog #dedicatedtothethingswelove #wordsandpictures #amazing #london #lifestyle #hawamahal #jaipur #india #thepalaceofthewinds #jharokhas #krishna #purdah #kachhwaharajputdynasty #maharajasawaipratapsingh #citypalace #pinkcity #pink #sandstone (at Jaipur, Rajasthan)
