Umaid Bhawan Palace, built as a famine relief project, is one of the world's largest private residences. Part of it operates as a Taj hotel, while another section is a museum displaying vintage cars, clocks, and personal items of the royal family. The palace's golden sandstone architecture and sprawling gardens make it a symbol of Jodhpur's regal heritage.
