On the horizon stands Umaid Bhawan, an Art Deco palace of red sandstone that can rival the greatest of European cathedrals in its lofty grandeur.

The grandest palace open to guests in India may be the Umaid Bhawan in Jodhpur, a monumental 347-room golden sandstone edifice that is still the home of the maharaja of Jodhpur and his family. (They have retreated to one enormous wing.) After attempting to run it as a hotel himself, the maharaja also turned it over to Taj to manage.
