Welcome heritage bal samand lake palace

A mere 5 kilometers north of the city limits of Jodhpur, on the Mandore Road is the WelcomHeritage Bal Samand Lake Palace, overlooking the still and clear Balsamand Lake. Built in red sandstone and employing the typical ornate Rajput architectural style, it was initially conceived as the summer residence of the Jodhpur Maharajas.

The lake itself which was artificially created in the 13th century as a water reservoir that supplied drinking water to the city - now compliments the lush green lawns and staggered terraced gardens of the property. This old royal retreat has now been fitted with all modern amenities which however, do not take away from the old world charm of the property.
