An architectural masterpiece. A luxurious hotel

The Jag Mandir Palace, more commonly known as the Lake Garden Palace, is an architectural masterpiece built by three Maharajas of the Sisodia Rajputs of Mewar and dates to the early 1600s. Throughout history, the palace has functioned as a popular summer retreat for royal family members and a venue for grand festivities and celebrations.

The Jag Mandir Palace stands on an island of Lake Pichola and provides breathtaking views of its waters and surrounding hills, providing the ideal setting for strolls through its garden.

Renowned for its impressive carvings and graceful architecture combining Hindu and Mughal styles, the palace is said to be the source of inspiration for designing the world-famous monument - the Taj Mahal. Today, the palace is a luxurious hotel that welcomes tourists and visitors.

When Rajasthan met Europe

The Jag Mandir Palace provides an immersive multidimensional experience that bridges history, nature, and culture. Its exquisite architecture reveals tales from its glorious past, while guided tours shed light on its deep cultural significance. As you explore its intricate workings, prepare for an engaging trip back in time.

An embodiment of cultural exchange between India and Europe, the palace blends traditional Rajasthani elements with European influences, creating an engaging ambience. While you take notice of the grand arches, intricate carvings, and graceful jalis that filter natural light, you'll observe European-influenced ornate balconies and colonnades, along with Mughal features like elaborate carvings, dome roofs and ornate arches. In addition, you'll also discover paintings, sculptures, manuscripts and jewellery that offer deep insight into India's rich past. A stunning fusion that makes its architecture unique and inspiring.

Legends within the palace

The Jag Mandir Palace is home to incredible stories and legends. One of them is the legendary tale of Prince Khurram (also known as Shah Jahan), who found shelter here during his rebellion and later built the iconic Taj Mahal inspired by its design. Furthermore, during India's first battle of independence in 1857, Maharana Swaroop Singh's heroic actions underscored its historical significance by sheltering European families who sought sanctuary within its walls. And not to forget – the grand silver screen moment of Jag Mandir Palace as one of the key settings in the 1983 James Bond movie "Octopussy", adding an extra dose of glamour to its splendid beauty.
