Amanbagh : the Peaceful Garden

Amanbagh, meaning "peaceful garden", lies in a verdant oasis, fed by a nearby lake, and previously the site of the Maharajah of Alwar's hunting lodge and pleasure garden. Amanbagh is a refined palatial-style mansion, a unique latter day haveli, architecturally faithful to the impressive, imperial Moghul dynasty.

Amanbagh, built within a walled enclosure, on an oasis of fertile soil, benefits lucratively from the natural feed of a nearby lake, resulting in an exotic and diverse display of perennials: statuesque palms, aged eucalyptus, fruit bearing trees, frangipani trees and lawns of manicured jade green, a dramatic contrast to its neighbouring rugged and hilly terrain. Styled along authentic architectural Moghul-era-lines, Amanbagh pays grand tribute to its remarkable ancestors through its eloquent, unique interpretation of a grand haveli.

The inspired use of local materials for the period details and lavish interiors; floors of softly hued pink marble or makrana, and domed cupolas and inner courtyards of pale smooth sandstone; evoke the lustre and splendour of India's golden age. Amanbagh is a secluded and luxuriant "portal", offering visitors the opportunity to discover and explore the fascinating remnants of an extraordinary local history, as well as the colourful culture and wildlife that flourishes today.
