Deeg is a small town which is located 22 miles north of Bharatpur contains an exquisite pleasure palace that must be seen far off the tourist trail. Therefore, low on the priority list and however, it’s off the tourist trail- the palace is in much disrepair for the same reason. During our visit the highest we’d seen we were put off by the hefty admission price for foreigners upon our arrival at the gate. You get an amazing view of the gardens from here.
The palaces are considered by some to be second only to the Taj Mahal in their symmetry and beauty, are around formal Mughal gardens. From the north you can enter the fort and get view of the ruins in marble and Redstone. We had visited that were stripped of their art and furnishings, from the other palaces, a far cry. The Rup Sagar and the Gopal Sagar these are two tanks on either side.
