One of the most identifiable monuments of Rajasthan and certainly the most striking landmark of Jaipur, Hawa Mahal (Palace of Winds), was built in 1799 AD by Maharaja Sawai Pratap Singh. This five storeyed structure, having 953 casements with small lattice worked (Jali) windows, was designed by Lal Chand Usta.
