The visit continued along several more chambers and courtyards, with the Mor Chowk (Peacock courtyard) have dazzled me with its vibrantly coloured nineteenth century mosaics of three dancing peacocks. The following chambers displayed a variety of artefacts, though it was the miniature painting artistry that mostly caught my attention.
As we were leaving we could see the last remaining decorations of a wedding ceremony, which had taken place in there the previous days, being carried away. I just wondered what type of feeling the newly wedded and their guest must have had as they strolled along this magnificent palace compound and I just wished the happiness of the new "couple" might correspond to one single square metre of the beauty they (and us) had been surrounded by.
