Samode Palace
 Samode is situated in the
royal Indian state of Rajasthan around 42 km from Jaipur, the
capital city. Located on way to Shekhawati, this small village is
famous for its haveli and fort. Samode is connected to Jaipur
through a good network of roads. Samode is an ideal desert
getaway. During the day, a camel ride through the Samode village
and the surrounding countryside is a good idea. Riding this
gentle animal with its rocking gait is the best way to relax on a
sunny morning. A real visit to Samode cannot be considered
complete without a musical evening of folk dances and songs.
Rajasthani bards and musicians with their colorful dresses and
unusual musical instruments provide one of the best evenings one
can have in India. The instruments include one-stringed fiddles,
country violins, bagpipes made out of goatskin, castanets, Jew's
harps, and even a one stringed instrument made out of a dried
gourd. The villagers sing with plaintive abandon under the faint
light of the crystal stars. A musical evening can be arranged at
a short notice at the Samode Palace.
 There are several places of
tourist interest in Samode village. The Samode Palace, now a
heritage hotel, is built in the characteristic pattern of an open
courtyard with rooms leading off the arched corridor that runs
along all the four sides of the building. The Sultan Mahal is on
the first floor-an exquisite room with a marble pillared
verandah. It has the famous Jaipur blue tile decorations. Every
inch of the ceiling and the walls are covered with floral,
paisley and geometric motifs painted in vegetable colors. It is
called Sultan Mahal after the craftsman, who painstakingly
created it. Old and heavy carved silver furniture brought from
Nepal by the grandmother of the present Rawal gleam dully in
sunlight even today. To the left of the main haveli is the Durbar
Hall, which was built about a hundred years ago. Again it is
painted with ornate floral motifs and colored delicately with
vegetable pigments, which still have a special glow of their own.
Samode offers some excellent spots for daylong excursions.
