Over 20,000 workers were employed.<\/p>\n<h3>Q6. What is Amber Fort in Jaipur famous for?<\/h3>\n<p>Amber Fort is famous for its blend of Rajput and Hindu architecture, the Sheesh Mahal (Hall of Mirrors) with its intricate mirror mosaics, maze-like staircases, and the Shila Devi Temple (dedicated to Shila Mata, a form of Goddess Kali). It sits atop the Aravalli Hills approximately 11 km from Jaipur city. Elephant rides to the fort entrance were traditionally popular.<\/p>\n<h3>Q7. How many windows does Hawa Mahal have?<\/h3>\n<p>The Hawa Mahal (Palace of Winds) in Jaipur has 953 small windows (jharokhas) \u2014 not 100 as sometimes stated. This distinctive facade was built in 1799 by Maharaja Sawai Pratap Singh to allow royal ladies to observe street life while remaining unseen.

It is open Saturday to Thursday from sunrise to sunset. The monument is also not accessible for viewing on select national holidays. The sunrise visit (6:30\u20137:00 AM) is the most popular for the best light and smallest crowds.<\/p>\n<h3>Q10.
