A bed chamber in the Amer Fort’s Jai Mandir; also known as the Sheesh Mahal or Mirror Palace because of its exquisitely adorned walls and ceilings, covered with hand-painted panels of glass, foil, and precious stones. It is believed that one of the ranis so loved sleeping under the stars that the rajah (it is unclear which one, as the Sheesh Mahal was built and added to between the 16th and 18th centuries) had the walls studded with mirrors and jewels that would reflect lamplight and give the illusion of thousands of stars. Rajasthan, India, February 2012.
