What people say, in short
Sajjangarh, or Monsoon Palace, is recommended mainly for its elevated views and sunset rather than for a long tour of the building. Visitors repeatedly praise the panorama, including in cloudy or rainy weather. The dissent matters: two find the building small or empty, and some consider the journey and ticket poor value. Crowding and traffic have prevented visits, so avoid building a tightly timed itinerary around a last-minute arrival. One visitor found it less impressive than City Palace and Jaipur's forts.
