'The Lalgarh Palace was built between 1902 and 1921, as a home for Maharaja Ganga Singh, as he did not want to occupy the Junagadh Fort. He named the palace after his father, Maharaja Lal Singh Ji. Like most palaces in Rajasthan, this palace is also made from red sandstone and is an architectural marvel. It was designed by British architect Sir Samuel Swinton Jacob.Made in the Rajput and Mughal styles of architecture, the main attractions of the Lalgarh Palace are the extensive filigree and latticework. Overhead balconies and sprawling green gardens are also the other major attractions here. A part of the palace has been converted into a heritage hotel and the other part is occupied by the royal family of Bikaner.'
