You may also visit the temple dedicated to Lord Varuna, which is half submerged in the water of the lake. This temple can be reached only by a boat. Sukh Mahal: The majestic Sukh Mahal was constructed during the reign of Umed Singh. It was beautifully built on the banks of Sukh Sagar or the Jait Sagar. You will be amazed to know the history that the palace was built to provide the princes a free hand to do what they liked away from the supervision of the Rao. Here you will be bewildered by the The white marble chhatri that stands in the centre of the roof of the second storey. Today the palace serves as the Irrigation Rest House.
84 Pillared Cenotaphs: This is also known as ‘The Chaurasi Khambon ki Chhatri’. It is situated at the southern side of the town. This is a pavilion supported by 84 pillars. It was constructed in the year 1683 by Rao Anirudh Singh to honour the services of Deva, his wet nurse. The two storied structure serves as a cenotaph as well as a temple though the importance of the cenotaph seems to have deteriorated with the passage of time.
