Umaid Bhawan Palace in Jodhpur, India, is one of the largest private residences in the world. Commissioned by Maharaja Umaid Singh in 1929 and completed in 1943, the palace is an architectural marvel made of golden-hued sandstone. It features a blend of eastern and western design elements, with Art Deco influences. The palace is divided into three functional parts: a luxury hotel managed by the Taj Group, a museum showcasing the 20th-century history of the Jodhpur Royal Family, and the remaining part still serves as the residence of the royal family.
