The "garden of the maids of honor", Sahelion-ki-Bari, roughly 2km north of Hathi Pole, was laid out by Sangram Singh early in the eighteenth century for the diversion and entertainment of the ladies of the royal household.
Surrounding a shady
courtyard, the fountained garden must once have made a delightful retreat, but
today the fountains only play at the request of visitors, and the focus of
attention is the wide range of indigenous trees and flowers. During the monsoon
the lotus pond behind the courtyard is ablaze with color. |
