Samod
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.
