If you enter through Uday pole, you will reach at Sabha Nivas, The general  people used to meet to the King at Sava Nivas (Dewani Khas); These halls are worth a visit; Pritam Niwas Chowk was also the synagogue of that time, and from there, there would be the Riddhi Siddhi Pole, the Siddhidata Temple, where ordinary people could come and worship in the temple. Also near Peacock Gate, Peacocks used to come here, where there is a Vishnu temple.

Chandra Mahal is the oldest palace in the City Palace. Take a look at this magnificent seven-storeyed palace, Sukh Niwas, Rang Mahal, Chitra Niwas, Sri Niwas and the crowned temple at the top. In fact, every part of the palace is really attractive; In the City Palace there is another meeting hall called Mubarak Hall, and a clock tower.

Jaipur's Hawa Mahal has become an icon here. Located on one end of the City Palace, this palace built of red and pink sandstone is actually the Queen's Palace; It is also called Shis Mahal; Maharaja Sowai Pratap Singh built this Hawa Mahal. The whole palace is five floors in total. It is also allowed to go upstairs; On the inside side of the Hawa Mahal there is history and the real world of the busy Gheenji Jaipur city is seen from the balconies of the palace.
