Vinay Vilas Mahal

Location

This 18th century palace used to be the residence of the rulers of the state of Alwar. A portion of this palace is now being used by the government, while another has been converted into a museum. The palace is a fine blend of Rajasthani and Mughul architecture. Among the things worth seeing here are the gold and velvet throne in the Durbar Hall, the murals, mirror decoration, and the collection of weapons in the museum. The miniature paintings of the Alwar School are among the other interesting exhibits. The palace is also called the city palace.
