The Rambagh Palace in Jaipur, Rajasthan is the former residence of the Maharaja of Jaipur and now a hotel, located outside the walls of the city of Jaipur on Bhawani Singh Road. ==History==
The first building on the site was a garden house built in 1835 for the wet nurse of prince Ram Singh II.〔Crump, Page 144.〕 In 1887, during the reign of Maharaja Sawai Madho Singh, it was converted into a modest royal hunting lodge, as the house was located in the midst of a thick forest at that time. In the early 20th century, it was expanded into a palace to the designs of Sir Samuel Swinton Jacob.〔Michell, in 1925, page 42〕 Maharajah Sawai Man Singh II made Rambagh his principal residence and added a number of royal suites in 1931.〔Crites, page 41〕 After India became independent and the princely states united, the Palace became the Government House. By the 1950s, the royal family felt that the upkeep of the palace and its of gardens was becoming very costly. Therefore, in 1957〔 they decided to convert it into a luxury hotel.〔
