Location
Located at the distance of about 42 km from Jaipur (the capital of Rajasthan), Samode is situated in the royal Indian state of Rajasthan. 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 a place of great interest for people who appreciate culture and local arts. It is famous for its magnificent havelis, forts, mansions, handicrafts and offers rustic flavor of Rajasthan.
Samode Attraction
SamodePalace :
Samode Palace is on of the most attractive thing to see in Samode. Unlike the other havelis of Rajasthan, the Samode Palace does not belong to any royal family but a family of noblemen, the Rawals of Samode. It is about four hundred years old, and has some new additions and modifications. The Palace has been now converted into a heritage hotel. The various things that can be checked out in Samode Palace are Sultan Mahal and the hall of mirrors.
Sultan Mahal :
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.
Hall of Mirrors :
A hall of mirrors, which is a must for any palace of consequence, is also to be found in Samode. Large and tiny fragments of polished mirror are set into the plasterwork and reflect a thousand images of the person entering the room. At night a single candle flame can create the effect of a thousand stars.
Samode Bagh
About 3 km from Samode, en-route to the main Jaipur-Agra road is Samode Bagh. It is a large beautiful garden that is being restored and is often used by film crews for shooting.
Excursion
Shekhawati :
Shekhawati is about two and half hours away from Samode. This small village is quite famous for its havelis with murals and wall paintings. This place is also called the living art gallery of the world by many experts.
Jaipur :
Jaipur is the capital of Rajasthan and one of the most famous tourist destinations in India. There are palaces, forts, museums, and observatories throughout the city.
What to Do
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 colourful 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.
Where to Stay
Samode has good accommodation options available in the upper budget range including a heritage hotel. Luxurious tented accommodation is also available in Samode.
How to Reach Samode
By Air :
The nearest airhead is Jaipur from where flights can be taken for the other important cities of India. Major cities that are connected with Jaipur by air are Delhi, Mumbai, and Udaipur.
By Rail :
