Ratan Daulat:
A very attractive structure, it was built by Rao Raja Ratan Singh. It is home to a stable for nine horses and a Hatia Pol. Prior permission is required to visit this site.

Nawal Sagar:
It is a square artificial lake in the center of which stands a half submerged shrine dedicated to Varuna, once the most important and fearsome god in the Aryan pantheon. The reflection of the entire city and the palace in the evening light is unforgettable.
