On your way to Nahargarh fort you will find Jal Mahal on your left. That's golden monument. It's lighted beautifully in the evenings

Once the city ends, it's an uphill road of around 15Kms from Jala Mahal to Nahargarh.

There's a Rajasthan Tourism cafe called Padao, which offers you brilliant city view. You need to reach slightly early to get the best seats with the best view. We reached there before the sunset, ordered some munchies and waited for the sun go down. Got three pictures for you, Before sunset; During sunset and after sunset :D

You can chill in the cafe for as long as you want, it remain opens till 10 PM. However, the return drive from there to city is slightly tricky if you are on a bike. The road passes through a protected wildlife reserve and usually gets completely empty after sunset.

However on your way back, don't miss this beauty!
