Heritage Hotels India

While the rulers of the princely states built their massive forts and stately palaces, the nobles were not far behind in building suitably impressive fortress and smaller palaces, in keeping with their status. Following them in order of rank came other important jagirdars who had their own palatial residences - not big enough to be rated as palaces, these were havelies which can be found in almost every village and town of Rajasthan.. While grandiose palaces like the Rambagh in Jaipur, Umaid Bhawan in Jodhpur and Lake Palace in Udaipur were converted into luxury hotels, the smaller palaces, castles have recently opened their doors to the tourists to the land of fascinating Rajasthan.
