Sisodia Rani ka Bagh is a hallmark of Sawai Jai Singh's love for his queen from Udaipur. The garden constructed in the year 1728 was a gift that the erstwhile founder of the Pink City gave to his beloved queen. The sprawling landscaped garden is an exquisite blend of traditional Indian and Mughal architecture and is sited at about 8 km from the capital city of Jaipur. The picturesque rambling lawns abounding in lush foliage and colorful vibrancies of the seasonal blooms is replete with pretty fountains with ornate figurines, galleries, pavilions, sparkling pools gleaming like a mirage of quicksilver, beautifully trimmed flowerbeds and murals vividly narrating the legends surrounding Lord Krishna. The murals are truly appropriate to the garden's central theme since they mainly portray the love that blossomed between Lord Krishna and his true love, Radha.
Sisodia Rani Ka Bagh was built by Maharaja Sawai Jai Singh in 1728 for his second queen, a princess from Udaipur. The Maharaja presented this royal garden to his beloved queen to serve as a perfect retreat place for her.

The walls are decorated with murals of Radha-Krishna, symbolizing the love that the Maharaja had for his beloved queen Sisodia.
