Above Maota Lake near Jaipur, Amer Fort blends Rajput and Mughal elements: polylobed arches, mirrored halls, and garden terraces. Conservation addresses stone decay, plaster renewal, and water management for hillside structures while channeling large visitor flows through courtyards and ramped approaches.
Successive courtyards organize processional entry, audience halls, and royal apartments. The Sheesh Mahal’s mirrored surfaces and the zenana’s screened rooms embody luxury and privacy.
Sandstone and marble combine with lime plasters and intricate inlay. Lake and stepwells historically supplied water; restoration stabilizes hydraulic features and slopes.
Ticketing, timed entries, and delineated paths reduce congestion on steep ramps and narrow galleries.
Arrive early to enjoy mirror‑lit halls; combine with Jaigarh Fort and stepwell at Panna Meena ka Kund.
