From Hawa Mahal, they could enjoy the everyday lives and celebrations of the festival through the windows without being seen as they weren’t allowed to go out in public without a veil. The Hawa Mahal was a part of the main City Palace, and the royal family used to come here to escape the scorching heat as this palace was always cold and breezy due to the windows it has. From then on, it has been preserved to keep the glory and grace alive for the generations to come.Architecture of Hawa Mahal Jaipur - Hawa Mahal is an excellent example of Hindu Rajput architecture finely blended with Islamic Mughal architecture giving it the face it is famous for.  It is made with red and pink sandstone along with white marble inside the palace.  The look of the palace observed from the street looks extremely beautiful, and people mistake it with the entrance of the palace.  Actually, it is the backside of the palace as it is an extended part of the main City Palace.
