About Ram Niwas Bagh
A garden planned by Maharaja Ram Sigh in the 19th century as a famine
relief project, this extensive park consists of a zoo, aviary,
herbarium, museum and sports complex. An added attraction is the Albert
Hall, designed by Sir Swinton Jacob, a British architect who created
palaces for many rulers in Rajasthan. The Hall is home to an exquisite
collection of sculptures, paintings, objects d’art, natural history
specimens, an Egyptian mummy and a beautiful Persian carpet. Recently,
the Rabbinic Manchu with an auditorium, a modern art gallery and an
open-air theatre, has been added to promote cultural events.
