Umaid Bhawan : Umaid Bhawan Built by Maharaja Umaid
Singh ( 1929 – 1942 ) and named after him, this exquisite Palace is also known
as Chittar Palace because of the local chittar sandstone used in it. It is a
splendid example of Indo-colonial and art deco architecture of the 30s. Maharaja Umaid Singhji
was very fascinated by western lifestyle.A unique
feature of this palace is the fact that the manually chiselled sandstone
blocks have been put together in a special system of interlocking. A part of the palace
now houses the Umaid Bhavan Palace of Jodhpur, Rajasthan.
There is no mortar binding. A portion of the palace has been converted into a hotel, the other remains on view to visitors in the form of an excellent museum which houses model aeroplanes, weapons, antique clocks, bob watches, priceless crockery and hunting trophies.
