Inside the fort are magnificent palaces made of intricately carved panels and traditional latticed windows and doors. The Phool Mahal (Flower Palace) even has a ceiling decorated with gold filigree. The splendour in which the kings of Marwar, who built the fort, lived is evident in every inch of this huge complex.
