The first avatar of Samode Palace was unveiled more than 500 years ago...
..when a Rajput Fort was built using exquisite marble and detailed masonry – a stroke of masterpiece architecture even at the time. It wasn’t until the 19th century that the fort was redesigned to the glamourous Indo-Saracenic opulence it is today. The murals and frescoes on the glistening Darbar walls date back over 250 years, while the famed Hall of Mirrors, the Sheesh Mahal with its ornamented pillars and regal interiors is but a reflection of the artistic splendour of the land and its people. Laced with intricately carved pillars, hidden alcoves and beautiful terraces, Samode Palace has been globally etched as the epitome of Rajasthani royalty.
