WelcomHeritage Bal Samand Lake Palace
Jodhpur, India
"A 17th-century summer palace set amidst 60 acres of lush fruit orchards overlooking the serene Balsamand Lake."
Bal Samand Lake Palace is a fairytale setting where history meets nature. Built in the 17th century as the summer residence of the Jodhpur Royal Family, this red sandstone palace overlooks the kilometer-long Balsamand Lake. Unlike the arid landscape of other Jodhpur venues, this property is a lush oasis spread over 60 acres of lime and pomegranate orchards. With its promenade by the lake, rose gardens, and croquet lawns, it offers a romantic and tranquil setting that feels miles away from the modern world.
