Palace of Rajasthan is situated near the city of Bikaner. Built by
Maharaja Ganga Singh Ji of Bikaner, the palace sprawls over an area of

desert', Gajner Palace was built as the summer resort of the Maharajas
of Bikaner. Standing on the embankment of a lake, the palace presents a
picturesque sight. This red sandstone monument is adorned with
exquisitely carved pillars, jharokhas and screens. The wooded area
