A few posts back I talked about our visit to City Palace in Jaipur with @coxandkingsusa. It has been the home of the royal family of Jaipur since 1732 and while they still live in the palace now, they don’t occupy all the rooms. Nor do they function as rulers in the same sense they once did but they do maintain the palace, not the government. It’s a fascinating fusion of Rajput & Mughal architecture. During our tour, which included access to the special rooms not available on the standard ticket, we visited the tower containing this room and it was one level up that I took the photo overlooking the city. Such a great view! Yet it was hard to not keep coming back to this room since every time I did I noticed something new. The scale and detail are incredible. I had to get @ananewyork to pose for me so you could see how low the ceiling is and yet it doesn’t feel claustrophobic. Somehow it feels like you’re inside a blue cloud filled with light and bursting with story. What was this room?...
