Samode
 Samode is famous for
the beautiful Samode Haveli and the splendid Samode Palace. The fort
is an old fortified residence of the Nathawat family (hailing from chomu)
that served as the Prime Ministers of the Jaipur Royal Court is located
some 40km from Jaipur and 264 km from Delhi in the range of Aravali. This
magnificent fort is as charming and romantic in itself, and exhibits
grandeur, good taste, class and elegance. The way to the fort's main
entrance is through the inside of the village, which can be covered from
the highway by a camel safari, with the locals welcoming the guests with
smiles and thrilling expressions. The inside of the fort reflects
expressions of the medieval architecture that is renovated a bit for the
oriental formality. The open courtyards in the centre has separate wings
on the sides that extends to 43 spacious rooms & suites having private
balconies and views. The walls are in warm colours to highlight the
intricate marble work, the antiques and the colourful art with traditional
artefacts. The Durbar hall of Samode Palace is one of the most beautifully
painted chambers with glass & minakari work and the same goes for the
private restricted spaces- meant for the "zannanis", women
of the family.
